National Conclave on GST

Chief Guest

Shri Tarun Bajaj, Secretary, Department of Revenue, Ministry of Finance

It will be five years since Goods and Services Tax (GST) unified most of the indirect tax laws in India on 1st July 2022. With ‘One nation, one tax’ as the ideology, the goal of GST was to streamline the indirect tax system in India. The GST has gone through significant changes since its implementation. It has grown in leaps and bounds with new reforms which leverage digitization and the surge of stricter rules and compliances.

This year may witness a likely rejig of the GST provisions and rate slabs as the GST Council had already tasked a Group of Ministers (GoM) to suggest ways to augment revenue by rationalizing tax rates and correcting anomalies in the tax structure.
