GST Monthly Collection

From 1st July 2017, GST has been implemented in India. Here we are providing Monthly Collection statics from GST Tax. How much you have paid to India Govt. in Account of GST. India govt. gets revenue from GST tax in monthly in thousands of Cr. The tax is collected by govt. in name of Development.

Moreover, GST is not the only tax, there are many more taxes in the form of which the govt. gains access o your hard earned money - Excise Duty, VAT on Petrol and Diesel, Stamp Duty, Royalty, Custom Duty, Professional Tax, Income Tax, Various penalties are some examples off the top of my head.

 

IB VIEW – The Government is going on a very good model and the GST collection is increasing on continuous basis. We believe that the ongoing Tax revenue will also increase in current financial year which will lead to the decrement of the Fiscal Deficit for the year 2019-20.
