What is GST?

GST stands for Goods and Services Tax. It is a comprehensive indirect tax levied on supply of goods and services in India, replacing VAT, service tax, excise duty, and octroi from July 1, 2017. GST is a destination-based tax collected at the point of consumption, eliminating the cascading effect of multiple taxes.
