The experts credit 2 special factors for improving the GST collections: an effective economic recovery post the resumption of economic and trade objectives after the covid-19 lockdown and more effective compliance.

The Indian economy has been shrinking by 23.9% for the 1st quarter of the present FY due to 68-day lockdown affected from 25th March which gets recovered to the contract by slower 7.5% in the September 30 which is the end quarter.
