India’s Goods Services Tax (GST) collections for the financial year 2025-26 (FY26) touched a total of ₹22.27 lakh crore, registering a marginal 0.8% increase over ₹22.09 lakh crore collected in FY25, reflecting steady tax mobilisation despite a moderation in domestic collections.
Domestic GST collections stood at ₹16.32 lakh crore during the year, declining 2.6% from ₹16.76 lakh crore in FY2024–25 largely due discontinuation of Cess framework, while import-related GST collections rose 11.7% to ₹5.95 lakh crore from ₹5.33 lakh crore, driving the overall growth in collections.
Among states, Maharashtra emerged as the largest contributor with collections of over ₹3.61 lakh crore, followed by Karnataka, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu and Haryana, according to data from the GST Council.
Maharashtra’s contribution to the top 10 GST collecting states increased significantly, rising from around 21.4% in FY2024–25 to nearly 22.1% in FY2025–26, highlighting the state’s continued dominance as India’s largest industrial and commercial hub.
