Historical Background

FACULTY OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES

GST has been implemented by many nations.
Keeping in mind a goal for a centralized tax
system, GST made its way into the Indian
economy. The Goods and Services Tax (GST) was
implemented with the goal of simplifying the
current tax system, broadening the tax base, and
increasing government income. It was
implemented with a hope that it would eliminate
the system of double taxation that was in place
earlier
 What is GST ?
The GST is a destination-based tax since it is imposed in the
state where goods and services are consumed (rather than
where they are created). In simple terms, GST replaces a

number of indirect taxes collected by the national and state

governments, resulting in a single market in India. Certain
goods and services are excluded from GST and are instead
subject to existing state taxes such as value added tax
(VAT), which is a tax paid at every level of value addition in
the supply chain. The customer pays these fees at each
stage of the manufacturing process.

Secondary Data Analysis

Customs duty/central excise duty, central sales tax on commodities

and services, surcharges, and cesses were all used under the
former taxation system. State taxes included state VAT, WCT,
entertainment tax, luxury tax, tax on gambling, betting, and lottery,
sales tax deducted at source, and surcharges and cesses, whereas
under GST, all central and state taxes will be merged into a single
tax on all goods and services except motor spirit, petroleum,
natural gas, and high-speed diesel.
