At 14%, GST collections in June grow fastest in 8 months
GST collections surged by 13.9% to Rs 1.94 lakh crore, the fastest in eight months, driven by a significant jump in import taxes on commodities like crude and fertilizers. While domestic collections saw a modest 6.5% rise, imports contributed substantially. This indicates robust manufacturing and import activity, though some states experienced significant drops in revenue. Experts suggest policy recalibration to boost domestic manufacturing.
