India's Goods and Services Tax (GST) collections for October 2025 reached ₹1.96 lakh crore, marking a 4.6% increase compared to the previous year. This growth was primarily fuelled by a significant surge in import-related GST, while domestic revenue saw a more modest rise. Despite this overall positive trend, refund outflows increased substantially, impacting net revenue growth.
