ReplyDeleteGST Enrolment - The goods and services tax (GST) is levied on the majority of goods and services sold for domestic consumption. All stages of production and up to final consumption are subject to this destination-based tax, with credits available for taxes paid at previous stages. Only value addition will be taxed in this case, so the final consumer will be liable for taxes.
