Goods and Services Tax has been the favorite kid of UPSC since past few years. Besides that due to the political consensus being reached, a new amendment bill in pipeline and talks of cooperative federalism GST may become a hot topic in upcoming interviews.
Though the purpose of GST is to ease the indirect tax regime but several concepts, I believe, require inquiry and demystification.
So let me begin by putting this question:-
GST is slated to be a destination based tax. What is a destination based tax? How is it different/advantageous/disadvantageous from a source based tax? What difficulties can be encountered in its collection?
PS:-Please ask more and more questions related to GST.
