The GST council, comprising federal and state finance ministers, has already cleared all the five draft laws- the central GST, Integrated GST, state GST, union territory GST and rules on compensating states for revenue losses. GST is expected to create a business friendly environment, as price levels and hence inflation rates would come down overtime as a uniform tax rate is applied. It will also improve government's fiscal health as the tax collection system would become more transparent, making tax evasion difficult.
