Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a comprehensive tax levied on the supply of goods and services across India. It replaces multiple indirect taxes and creates a unified tax system. Asktrix provides expert assistance for GST registration, ensuring a smooth and compliant process for your business.
GST (Goods and Services Tax) is a destination-based tax levied on the supply of goods and services. It was introduced in India on July 1, 2017, to replace multiple indirect taxes like VAT, Service Tax, Excise Duty, etc. GST is governed by the CGST Act, SGST Act, and IGST Act.
GST is collected at each stage of the supply chain, from manufacturer to consumer, with credit for taxes paid at previous stages available as input tax credit. This eliminates the cascading effect of taxes and creates a more efficient tax system.
