What is GST?
“Goods and Service Tax (GST) is a comprehensive tax levy
on manufacture, sale and consumption of goods and
service at a national level.
GST is a tax on goods and services with value addition at
each stage having comprehensive and continuous chain of
set-of benefits from the producer’s/ service provider’s
point up to the retailer’s level where only the final
consumer should bear the tax.”
Need for GST
Introduction of a GST to replace the existing multiple tax
structures of Centre and State taxes is not only desirable but
imperative in the emerging economic environment.
Increasingly, services are used or consumed in production and
distribution of goods and vice versa. Separate taxation of goods
and services often requires splitting of transaction values into
value of goods and services for taxation, which leads to greater
complexities, administration and compliances costs.
Integration of various taxes into a GST system would make it
possible to give full credit for inputs taxes collected. GST, being a
destination-based consumption tax based on VAT principle, would
also greatly help in removing economic distortions and will help in
development of a common national market.

What is GST? “Goods and Service Tax (GST) is a comprehensive tax levy on manufacture, sale and consumption of goods and service at a national level. GST is a tax on goods and services with value addition at each stage having comprehensive and continuous chain of set-of benefits from the producer’s/ service provider’s point up to the retailer’s level where only the final consumer should bear the tax.”
  • 7. Need for GST Introduction of a GST to replace the existing multiple tax structures of Centre and State taxes is not only desirable but imperative in the emerging economic environment. Increasingly, services are used or consumed in production and distribution of goods and vice versa. Separate taxation of goods and services often requires splitting of transaction values into value of goods and services for taxation, which leads to greater complexities, administration and compliances costs. Integration of various taxes into a GST system would make it possible to give full credit for inputs taxes collected. GST, being a destination-based consumption tax based on VAT principle, would also greatly help in removing economic distortions and will help in development of a common national market.
