Goods and Services Tax Compliance Services
The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a comprehensive, multi-stage, destination-based tax levied on every value addition in India. It replaced various indirect taxes like VAT, service tax, and excise duty, unifying them under a single system. GST is categorized into three types: Central GST (CGST), State GST (SGST), and Integrated GST (IGST), depending on whether the transaction is within a state or involves interstate commerce. GST simplifies the tax structure, reduces the cascading effect of taxes, and facilitates a unified national market.
