What is Goods and Services Tax (GST)?

The GST came into effect from July 1, 2017 through the implementation of 101 Amendment of the Constitution of India by the Government of India.

GST is introduced as an unified indirect tax only, leviable in India on the supply of goods or services or both except taxes on supply of the alcoholic liquor for human consumption.

GST is levied at every step in the production process, but is refunded to all parties in the chain of production other than the final consumer. Thus, GST is basically a destination based tax as levied at a single point at the time of consumption of goods or services by the ultimate consumer.
