After adjusting for tax refunds, GST revenue collection stood at ₹1.54 trillion, showing annual growth of 3.3%. The gross GST receipts had touched a record high of ₹2.1 trillion in April 2024 on the back of strong financial year-end inventory clearing by companies in March but subsequently moderated.
