India GST collections rise 14.7% to over ₹2.04 lakh crore
In short
India’s GST collections rose 14.7% in September to over ₹2.04 lakh crore. The update said import collections jumped 26% and helped push the total higher.
This matters because GST is a key sign of tax activity and demand in the economy. The report does not say how refunds or net collections changed.
