During February, significant year-on-year growth was observed, with a 6% rise in revenue from imported goods and a 15% increase in domestic transactions.
Detailed Breakdown of February 2023 GST Collections
The total GST revenue for February was INR 1,49,577 crore. This sum included INR 27,662 crore from Central GST (CGST), INR 34,915 crore from State GST (SGST), and INR 75,069 crore from Integrated GST (IGST), which encompassed INR 35,689 crore from imported goods. The cess collected amounted to INR 11,931 crore, with INR 792 crore originating from import duties. Notably, this month’s cess collection represents the highest recorded since GST’s inception.
The government allocated INR 34,770 crore from the IGST pool to CGST and INR 29,054 crore to SGST as part of regular settlements. Consequently, the combined revenue for the Central government (CGST) and State governments (SGST) reached INR 62,432 crore and INR 63,969 crore, respectively. Furthermore, the Central government disbursed the remaining GST compensation cess of INR 16,982 crore for June 2022. An additional INR 16,524 crore in final GST compensation was provided to states and Union Territories that had submitted certified revenue figures from their Accountant Generals.
Analysis of February 2023 GST Revenue Trends
Historically, February often registers lower GST collections given its shorter duration. However, the figures for this February, and indeed for several preceding months, have shown remarkable strength. This positive trend might be attributed to enhanced compliance efforts initiated by the government. Another contributing factor to the consistent GST collection figures observed recently could be the ongoing economic recovery across the country following the COVID-19 pandemic.
