India’s Gross Goods and Services Tax (GST) collections increased by 7.3% Year-on Year in December, reaching ₹1.77 lakh crore. Net GST receipts also increased by 8.6% for the first nine months of 2024–25, reaching over ₹14.45 lakh crore. This growth is a key indicator of economic activity and has the potential to boost total economic expansion. However, net GST collections fell to 3.3% after accounting for refunds, the lowest level in fiscal year 2024–2025. In December, gross GST inflows were less than ₹1.77 lakh crore, a three-month low and a 7.3% increase over the same month in 2023. Only twice in more than three and a half years have growth fallen to these levels: in June 2024, when gross revenues increased by 7.3%, and in September 2024, when growth had fallen to a 40-month low of 6.5%. Refunds to taxpayers increased by 45.3% to ₹22,490 crore, explaining part of the steeper deceleration in net collections growth compared to gross receipts. In December, net receipts totalled ₹1,54,366 crore. Revenues from import and domestic taxes declined, with gross GST receipts increasing by 8.5% and refunds decreasing by 8.9%. Domestic transaction revenues increased by 8.4% in December, while import revenues increased by just 3.9%. The overall growth in net GST revenues for the first nine months of 2024–25 is currently 8.6%, dropping from the 9.2% growth up till November. The rise of the GST kitty is consistent with trends in GDP growth, with four states experiencing a decline in GST collections compared to seven in November. The present study is to compare the statewide contribution to GST.

摘要

India’s Gross Goods and Services Tax (GST) collections increased by 7.3% Year-on Year in December, reaching ₹1.77 lakh crore. Net GST receipts also increased by 8.6% for the first nine months of 2024–25, reaching over ₹14.45 lakh crore. This growth is a key indicator of economic activity and has the potential to boost total economic expansion. However, net GST collections fell to 3.3% after accounting for refunds, the lowest level in fiscal year 2024–2025. In December, gross GST inflows were less than ₹1.77 lakh crore, a three-month low and a 7.3% increase over the same month in 2023. Only twice in more than three and a half years have growth fallen to these levels: in June 2024, when gross revenues increased by 7.3%, and in September 2024, when growth had fallen to a 40-month low of 6.5%. Refunds to taxpayers increased by 45.3% to ₹22,490 crore, explaining part of the steeper deceleration in net collections growth compared to gross receipts. In December, net receipts totalled ₹1,54,366 crore. Revenues from import and domestic taxes declined, with gross GST receipts increasing by 8.5% and refunds decreasing by 8.9%. Domestic transaction revenues increased by 8.4% in December, while import revenues increased by just 3.9%. The overall growth in net GST revenues for the first nine months of 2024–25 is currently 8.6%, dropping from the 9.2% growth up till November. The rise of the GST kitty is consistent with trends in GDP growth, with four states experiencing a decline in GST collections compared to seven in November. The present study is to compare the statewide contribution to GST.
