Practical writing on India's GST system — rate changes, compliance deadlines, sector-specific breakdowns, and what the numbers actually mean for businesses and households. Every post ties back to real figures and primary sources (the CGST Act, CBIC notifications, and GST Council press releases), and each is dated with when it was published and when it was last checked for accuracy.

Recent coverage includes the move to GST 2.0's three-tier rate structure, the 30-day e-invoicing deadline, MSME compliance relief under Budget 2026, and sector-specific breakdowns for healthcare, agriculture, and household budgets. If you're looking for the calculator itself rather than the writing, it's here.
