Option 2 : 1 July
The correct answer is 1 July.
- India celebrates July 1 as the GST Day to commemorate the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) that replaced the old indirect tax regime in the country.
- It was launched on July 1, 2017.
- It is a multi-stage, indirect consumption-based tax system that subsumes a host of domestic indirect taxes such as service tax, value-added tax, excise duty, and others under one head.
- The tax is valid on most goods and services, with petroleum and liquor being among the notable exceptions.
- As per data by the Centre, GST revenue collected in May 2022 was Rs 1,40,885 crore.
- This marks the fourth time that GST revenues crossed the Rs 1.4 lakh crore-mark since the tax system was started.
