Despite the slower growth, officials expect the upward trend to continue, with future collections likely to exceed ₹1.6 trillion. This data release coincides with the seventh anniversary of the GST regime, which has successfully expanded the taxpayer base to 14.6 million and reduced compliance burdens for small businesses through reforms like the QRMP scheme.
