State tax officials reported a 14.10% rise in GST revenue for September, reflecting stronger economic activity in Andhra Pradesh.
The Andhra Pradesh Commercial Taxes Department announced that GST collections for September increased by 14.10% compared with the same month last year. The rise was recorded across major tax slabs, indicating higher consumption and business turnover in the state.
Officials attributed the growth to improved compliance, the recent rollout of digital filing platforms, and a rebound in sectors such as retail and manufacturing. The department said that the higher revenue will bolster the state’s fiscal position and support ongoing development projects.
The state government has not disclosed the exact monetary value of the collections, but the percentage jump aligns with broader national trends of recovering GST receipts after pandemic-induced slowdowns. Analysts expect the upward trajectory to continue if economic activity remains robust.
The finance ministry is monitoring the figures closely, as GST performance is a key indicator of the health of India’s indirect tax regime. Further updates are expected in the upcoming quarterly review.
