Authorities identified thousands of fake GST registrations created using forged credentials, involving large-scale tax evasion. The ruling highlights intensified detection and enforcement measures.
A uniform 18% and 5% GST framework was implemented nationwide following Council recommendations. The ruling highlights its role in supporting small businesses through lower taxes on essential goods.
