This is very much in line with the trend in economic recovery, " reads the release."For the second straight month, gross GST collection crossed Rs 1.30 lakh crore.

"Central tax enforcement agencies, along with the State counterparts have detected large tax evasion cases, mainly cases relating to fake invoices, with the help of various IT tools developed by GSTN that use the return, invoice and e-way bill data to find suspicious taxpayers," it said."A large number of initiatives undertaken in the last one year like enhancement of system capacity, nudging non-filers after the last date of filing of returns, auto-population of returns, blocking of e-way bills and passing of input tax credit for non-filers has led to consistent improvement in the filing of returns over the last few months," it added.As per the data shared, the highest amount of tax is collected from Maharashtra (Rs 18,656 crore), followed by Gujarat (Rs 9,569 crore) and Karnataka (Rs 9,048 crore).( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
