India Inc. is eagerly awaiting the implementation of the GST

India Inc. is eagerly awaiting the passage of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Bill, dubbed as the biggest tax reform since independence. The GST will eliminate a number of indirect taxes and levies, transforming the country into one market. GST is expected to boost economic growth and bring down costs of manufactured goods, which will increase the profitability of India Inc.

Sachin Bansal, co-founder of e-commerce giant Flipkart, said GST has the potential to create millions of new jobs.
