GST is the newly implemented tax structure of India.

Goods and Services Tax is aimed to replace all the indirect taxes levied on goods and services by the Centre and States currently.

Recognized as one of the most significant tax amelioration of the country, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) subsumes many indirect taxes which were imposed by Centre and State such as excise, VAT, and service tax.

GST implies Goods and Service Tax and it is an indirect tax levied on the supply of goods and services sold in the country. GST act came in effect from 1st July 2017. The GST has replaced many Indirect Taxes in India. 

It implies the fact of One Nation, One Tax and it replaces all types of taxes with a single tax. GST helps to remove the cascading tax effect and regulate the unorganized sector.

GST is subdivided into three components:

1. Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST),
2. State Goods and Services Tax (SGST),
3. Inter-State Goods and Services Tax (IGST).

CGST is a tax levied on Intra State supplies of both goods and services by the Central Government.

The CSGT will subsume the Central indirect taxes like the service tax, excise duty, additional customs duty, additional special excise duty.

SGST is a tax levied on Intra State supplies of both goods and services by the State Government.

SGST will subsume the State indirect taxes like VAT, entertainment tax, octroi, and others.

IGST is a tax levied on all Inter-State supplies of goods and/or services.

IGST will be applicable on any supply of goods and/or services in both cases of import into India and export from India.

GST is a clear-cut tax and also reduces the number of indirect taxes.

It helps to eliminate multiple cascading effects of taxes and endeavoring at a goal of letting industry and the economy benefit as a whole.

eCommerce industries are presumed to benefit from GST as they underwent the complicated and multi-tier supply chain system including a lot of paperwork, reporting, and compliances.

Since GST is going to remove complexities arising out of the multi-tier supply system, the resultant lesser paperwork and lesser compliances will help e-commerce companies improve their efficiencies.

GST has eliminated complexities rising out of the multi-tier supply system, the resultant lesser paperwork and lesser compliances will help e-commerce businesses enhance their efficiencies.
