Solution

"Goods and services tax" refers to any tax on the supply of goods, services, or both, excluding taxes on the supply of alcoholic beverages for human consumption. It is an indirect tax that combines various taxes, such as sales tax, excise tax, VAT, and so on, into a single tax for the entire country. GST is levied at every stage of the supply chain of goods or services, from production to the final retail level, replacing the various archaic tax structures.
