Goods and Service Tax

A comprehensive dual Goods and Services Tax (GST) has replaced

the complex multiple indirect tax structure from 1 July 2017.

Introduction of Goods and Service Tax (GST) is a significant step in

the reform of indirect taxation in India. Various Central and State

taxes are amalgamated into a single tax which helps mitigate the

double taxation, cascading, multiplicity of taxes, classification

issues, taxable event and leading to a common national market. A

comprehensive dual GST has replaced the complex multiple indirect

tax structure from 1 July 2017.

DESTINATION PRINCIPLE

The GST structure follows the destination principle. Accordingly,

imports are subject to GST, while exports & supply to SEZ qualify as

zero-rated supply. In the case of inter-State transactions within

India, the State tax shall apply in the State of destination as

opposed to that of origin. Under this system, tax is administered,

collected, and shared by both the Centre and the State

governments, based on the nature of transaction (within the state

or interstate).
