Post the implementation of GST and note ban, is the financial state of the country on the right path?

Note ban and implementation of GST are the country’s biggest financial improvements. Through the note ban, legal and regulated financial system came into existence. Cash transactions have reduced and people are giving more importance to digital transaction and as per the statistics of the last two years, there is a noticeable increase in the number of people paying income tax. With the implementation of GST, the tax burden on the customer has reduced and the prices of commodities have dropped.

With the introduction of GST, the customer now has the knowledge on what tax he is paying and how much. Due to the implementation of GST, the GDP is growing.
