The GST law is an indirect tax that came into effect on July 1, 2017 in India. Many indirect taxes have been replaced with GST, which is a single statute. In India, the GST law is a multi-stage, destination-based tax.<\/p>\n<p>GST, on the other hand, is an Indian tax. However, there are some transactions that may apply to non-residents as well (including <a href=\"https:\/\/carajput.com\/blog\/applicability-of-gst-provisions-on-non-resident-taxable-person\/\">NRIs<\/a>, OCIs, foreign citizens).
