New Delhi: The gross Goods and Services Tax (GST) collection in the month of July 2022 rose by 28 per cent year-on-year to touch Rs 1,48,995 crore.

"The gross GST revenue collected in the month of July 2022 is Rs 1,48,995 crore of which CGST is Rs 25,751 crore, SGST is Rs 32,807 crore, IGST is Rs 79,518 crore (including Rs 41,420 crore collected on import of goods) and cess is Rs 10,920 crore (including Rs 995 crore collected on import of goods)," an official release from Finance Ministry said on Monday.

During July this year, revenue from import of goods was 48% higher while revenue from domestic transactions (including import of services) was 22 per cent higher than the revenues from these sources during the same month last year.

"For five months in a row now, the monthly GST revenues have been more than Rs 1.4 lakh core, showing a steady increase every month. The growth in GST revenue till July 2022 over the same period last year is 35 per cent and displays a very high buoyancy," Finance Ministry said.
