GST Collection crosses ₹94,000 Crores in December 2018

The nation has indeed attained remarkable success in the introductory year of the GST regime. Once again it has been proved that the Goods & Service Tax policy has enabled our government to achieve the desired level of fiscal consolidation.

The gross total GST revenue collection has reached above ₹94.7 crores in the month of December 2018.

This is indeed a piece of great news for all the taxpayers having GST registration after the government introduced huge reductions in GST rates on various goods & services in the 31st GST council meeting.

#2. How much has the GST compliance enhanced?

There is no doubt that in recent months, the level of GST compliance and the tax buoyancy has risen significantly.

  • As a matter of fact, the total number of GSTR-3B Returns filed for the month of November till 31st December 2018 has been 72.44 lakhs.
