What is GST?
Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a unified indirect tax system introduced in India to replace multiple state and central taxes. GST is applicable on the supply of goods and services and is collected at every stage of value addition.
The main objective of GST is to simplify the tax structure, reduce tax evasion, and create a transparent and uniform taxation system across the country.
Why is GST Important?
GST plays a vital role in India’s economy by ensuring smooth tax collection and reducing the burden of cascading taxes. It helps businesses operate efficiently and allows consumers to pay a fair and transparent tax.
- Eliminates multiple indirect taxes

Importance of GST Filing
Filing GST returns on time is mandatory for registered taxpayers. Regular filing ensures compliance with tax laws and avoids penalties, interest, and legal issues.
Even small businesses and professionals benefit from timely GST filing as it helps maintain credibility, smooth operations, and eligibility for input tax credit.
Did You Know?
Non-filing or delayed GST returns can lead to penalties, blocked e-way bills, and suspension of GST registration.
