GST Changes in 2020
The Year 2020 has not been an easy year. But looking at the silver lining, this has been a year that led us to embrace the digital means much faster than ever and never considered earlier in the areas.
After months of lockdown, our economy is gradually recovering from the slowdown. The increasing GST collection numbers do indicate that businesses are steadily standing back on their feet.
