Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision, the Next-Gen GST aims to streamline tax compliance and rationalize tax rates, according to Sitharaman.

The initiative builds on nine years of GST implementation and incorporates feedback from taxpayers and states.

Sitharaman emphasized that the Next-Gen GST is part of India's broader ambition to become a Viksit Bharat, a term referring to a vibrant and advanced economy.

The next phase of process reforms will be presented to the GST Council soon, signaling a continued commitment to economic modernization.
