Abstract

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is considered to be a major and one of the biggest reforms in India. GST was introduced in India on 1st July 2017, with the objective of replacing multiple Indirect taxes, which were prevailing in India and also overhauling the indirect taxation system in the country. The roll out of GST has completed almost four years and therefore, in this research paper, the researchers try to study the performance of GST since its inception and also try to study the recent impact of covid 19 pandemic on GST collection in India. For the purpose of the study, secondary data were used and descriptive statistics, Kruskal-Wallis test, DSCF pairwise comparisons test and forecasting method, were employed.
