GST collections touch record-high of over Rs 1.15 lakh crore in December 2020

04 Jan 2021 Evaluate

Goods and Services Tax (GST) collections touched a record-high of over Rs 1.15 lakh crore in December 2020, in signs that the economy continues to reflate after a strict lockdown. Mop-up from GST in December 2020 was 12 percent higher than Rs 1.03 lakh crore collected in the same month of 2019. The total number of GSTR-3B Returns filed for the month of November up to December 31, 2020 is Rs 87 lakh.

The Finance Ministry has stated that the continued rise in the GST mop up, which has crossed the psychological Rs 1 lakh crore-mark for the third straight month in the current fiscal, is due to the combined effect of the rapid economic recovery post-pandemic and the nation-wide drive against GST evaders and fake bills along with many systemic changes introduced recently, which have led to improved compliance. 

It further said GST revenues during December 2020, have been the highest since the introduction of GST on July 1, 2017. It noted that the highest collection till now was Rs 1,13,866 crore in April 2019. It also said GST collections, which directly reflects the state of economic activity, had plummeted to a record low of Rs 32,172 crore in April, after the government imposed a nationwide lockdown to curb the spread of coronavirus. It added that subsequent easing of lockdown restrictions helped collections rise and it posted its first year-on-year growth in September 2020.
