Understanding GST and GSTIN

Goods and Services Tax (GST) is a unified tax system in India that replaced multiple indirect taxes. A GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) is a unique 15-digit number allotted to every taxpayer registered under GST. This number is essential for businesses to conduct transactions, file returns, and claim input tax credit.
