Understanding GST for E-Commerce Sellers

GST compliance is essential for e-commerce sellers in India. Here's a simplified guide:


What is GST?

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is an indirect tax on supply of goods and services in India.


Types of GST

  • **CGST** (Central GST): Collected by central government for intra-state sales
  • **SGST** (State GST): Collected by state government for intra-state sales
  • **IGST** (Integrated GST): For inter-state sales

    • GST Rates

    Common rates: 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28% depending on product category.
