<p>TaxMitra's GST section covers every notification, rate change, and circular issued by the <strong>Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC)</strong> and the <strong>GST Council</strong>, making India's complex indirect tax regime accessible to businesses, tax professionals, and individuals alike.</p> <p>The <strong>Goods and Services Tax</strong>, implemented in July 2017, unified India's indirect tax landscape and today applies to over 1.4 crore registered businesses. With multiple return forms (GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, GSTR-9), quarterly and monthly filing options (regular vs. QRMP scheme), e-invoicing thresholds, and frequent rate revisions, staying compliant requires constant vigilance. A single missed GSTR-3B filing attracts a late fee of ₹50 per day (₹20 for nil returns) plus 18% interest on unpaid tax.</p> <p>This page tracks GST developments in real time, including: <strong>GSTR filing deadline changes</strong> and extensions, <strong>GST rate revisions</strong> across the four slabs (5%, 12%, 18%, 28%), <strong>Input Tax Credit (ITC)</strong> rule changes under Sections 16 through 18, <strong>e-invoice and e-way bill</strong> threshold updates, <strong>GST Council meeting outcomes</strong> and recommendations, <strong>CBIC circulars</strong> clarifying contentious provisions, and <strong>anti-profiteering</strong> and compliance measures.</p> <p>Every update follows a structured format answering: <strong>what changed</strong> in the GST framework, <strong>which businesses or taxpayers are affected</strong>, <strong>the effective date</strong>, <strong>what compliance action is required</strong>, and any <strong>penalties or interest</strong> for non-compliance. Our AI processes the original government notification — often laden with cross-references to CGST Act sections, rules, and schedules — and presents it in clear, actionable language.</p> <p>Whether you run an e-commerce business navigating TCS under Section 52, a manufacturer managing ITC reversals, an exporter tracking IGST refunds, or a tax consultant advising multiple clients across states — TaxMitra ensures you receive every GST update within hours of publication.
