Chandigarh: June GST collection sees 2% decline compared to last year
After witnessing a surge in May, the goods and services tax (GST) collection in Chandigarh saw a marginal dip of 2% in June compared to the corresponding period last year. According to the Ministry of Finance, the GST collection for June 2025 stood at Rs.220 crore, which is Rs.4 crore less than the collection in June 2024.
This decline follows a 53% jump in the collection seen in May 2025, when the city registered Rs.363 crore in collections— Rs.126 crore higher than the Rs.237 crore recorded in May 2024. The upward trend was also visible in April, which saw a 7% increase, with Rs.334 crore collected as against Rs.313 crore last year.
In March, the collection rose by 1%, reaching Rs.241 crore, while February saw a 12% rise at Rs.236 crore. However, this follows a brief decline in December 2024, where GST collections dropped by 20%. Recovery was evident in January 2025 with an 8% increase, bringing the monthly collection to Rs.271 crore.
