Goods and Services Tax(GST) - GST Council's Official Website Launched

Much-awaited nation-wide tax Goods and Services Tax (GST) will be rolled out on mid-night of June 30 and will come into force from July 1. The government today went live with GST Council's website which contains all the fine details about the new tax regime which is being touted as the biggest reform since Independence. The incoming indirect tax regime - GST - will subsume a variety of central and state levies. With GST, the government aims to create a common market, preventing 'tax-on-tax' and making goods and services cheaper.

Senior IAS officer Arun Goyal who was appointed as the Additional Secretary in the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council in September last year in a tweet said, "GST Council website http://www.gstcouncil.gov.in  is live now. @FinMinIndia @GST_Council @askGST_GoI @PMOIndia @adhia03 @arunjaitley @CBEC_India"
