How to Use
GST (Goods and Services Tax) is India's unified indirect tax that replaced multiple central and state taxes (VAT, excise, service tax, etc.) on July 1, 2017. Every product and service in India (except a few exempted items and petroleum) carries a GST rate.
GST 2.0 — The Biggest Overhaul Since 2017
At the 56th GST Council meeting, India simplified its rate structure from 5 slabs to 4 slabs, effective September 22, 2025. The old 12% and 28% slabs were abolished. Most 12% items moved to 5%, most 28% items moved to 18%, and a new 40% slab was created for sin goods and luxury items. Health and life insurance premiums became fully exempt (0%).
Understanding GST Types
CGST + SGST: For transactions within the same state, GST is split equally between Central GST and State GST. IGST: For inter-state transactions, Integrated GST is charged at the full rate. The total tax amount is the same — only the split differs.

Frequently Asked Questions
As of September 22, 2025, India has 4 main GST slabs: 0% (exempt) for essentials like fresh food, education, health insurance; 5% for daily-use items like packaged food, medicines, soap; 18% for most goods and services including electronics, cement, IT services; and 40% for luxury/sin goods like tobacco, aerated drinks, premium cars. Special rates of 0.25% (rough diamonds) and 3% (gold/silver) also exist.
CGST (Central GST) and SGST (State GST) are charged on transactions within the same state — each is half the total GST rate. IGST (Integrated GST) is charged on inter-state transactions at the full rate. Example: 18% GST on an intra-state sale = 9% CGST + 9% SGST. Same sale inter-state = 18% IGST. The total tax amount is identical.
The 56th GST Council meeting simplified the rate structure: the 12% slab was abolished (most items moved to 5%), the 28% slab was abolished (most items moved to 18%), and a new 40% slab was created for sin/luxury goods. Major beneficiaries: ACs, TVs, washing machines, cement (28%→18%), health/life insurance (18%→0%), soaps, medicines (moved to 5%). Tobacco and aerated drinks moved to 40%.
ITC allows businesses to subtract the GST paid on purchases from the GST collected on sales. You only pay the difference to the government. Example: if you collect ₹90,000 GST on sales and paid ₹54,000 GST on purchases, you deposit only ₹36,000. ITC prevents tax-on-tax (cascading). To claim ITC: the supplier must have filed their return, you must have a valid tax invoice, and the goods/services must be used for business purposes.
Under RCM, the buyer (instead of the seller) is responsible for paying GST to the government. This applies when buying from unregistered suppliers, receiving legal services from advocates, transportation by GTA, security services, and import of services. The buyer pays GST separately to the government and can claim ITC on the same amount — so the net cost impact is zero for registered businesses.
The Composition Scheme is a simplified GST option for small businesses with turnover up to ₹1.5 crore (₹75 lakh for NE states). Instead of charging GST on each invoice, you pay a flat rate on total turnover: 1% for manufacturers/traders, 5% for restaurants, 6% for service providers. Trade-offs: you can't claim ITC, can't collect GST from customers, can't do inter-state sales, and must file quarterly (not monthly) returns.
