India's GST Collections Reach Record Rs 1.42 Lakh Crore in March 2022
India's gross GST collections have shown consistent growth, reaching a record Rs 1.42 lakh crore in March 2022, the highest since GST's introduction. February collections stood at Rs 1.33 lakh crore, with cess crossing Rs 10,000 crore for the first time. November 2021 saw the second-highest collection at Rs 1.31 lakh crore. The increases reflect economic recovery, limited impact from COVID-19's third wave, and rate rationalisation measures by the GST Council.
