Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of Goods and Services Tax (GST) in India?
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) in India aims to simplify the indirect tax structure by consolidating multiple central and state taxes into a single, comprehensive tax. Its primary goals include reducing tax complexities, broadening the tax base, and fostering economic growth through a more unified national market.
How is GST calculated on goods and services?
GST is calculated as a percentage of the transaction value of goods or services. It is applied at various prescribed rates, such as 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28%, depending on the category of the item. The final consumer typically bears the tax, but it is collected at each stage of the supply chain.
What are the different components of GST in India?
In India, GST comprises four main components: Central GST (CGST) for intra-state transactions, State GST (SGST) also for intra-state transactions, Integrated GST (IGST) for inter-state transactions and imports, and Union Territory GST (UTGST) for transactions within Union Territories without a legislature. Each component serves to allocate tax revenue appropriately between central and state governments.
Who is required to register for GST in India?
Businesses exceeding a specified turnover threshold (which varies by state and type of goods/services) are generally required to register for GST. Additionally, individuals involved in inter-state supply, e-commerce operators, and those making taxable supplies on behalf of others must also register for GST.
How do state GST collections impact the national economy?
State GST collections are a crucial indicator of economic activity and consumption patterns within individual states. Strong state collections contribute significantly to both state revenues and the overall national exchequer, enabling governments to fund public services and infrastructure projects. Robust collections reflect healthy trade and consumption, supporting broader economic stability and growth.
