^Post-Settlement GST is cumulative of the GST revenues of the States/UTs and the SGST portion of the IGST settled to the States/UT
Considering the constant increase in revenue compared to previous years, it will be interesting to learn about the decision of the GST Council on Rate Rationalisation in the upcoming 54th meeting next week. Moreover, the Finance Minister stressed the importance of taking measures to facilitate trade and streamline GST compliances in the last council meeting. We can also expect a decision to cease the compensation cess introduced for five years to help states overcome the initial revenue loss and stabilise the system as revenues grow.
