Abstract: November amendments in GST rates and filing of returns have brought relief to manufacturers and traders. However, marketplace operators are still not happy. Finance Ministry believes that reduction of GST rates would not result in shortfall in target indirect tax collection. The Ministry expects strong corporate results in third and fourth quarters of the current fiscal and hopes that buoyancy in the economy will improve the overall tax collection. One has to wait till March 2018 to see the impact of recent changes in GST on the exchequer. India has also completed this month the first anniversary of demonetisation. Researchers and policy makers would now analyse the data to comment on the effect of such a large natural experiment. We expect to see some serious study on impact of demonetisation soon.
