It categorizes supplies into taxable, exempt, inter-state, intra-state, composite, mixed, and zero-rated supplies. GST is a destination-based tax with input tax credit provisions. There are three levy methods: normal, composition, and reverse charge. Alcohol and certain petroleum products are excluded from GST.

  Case Laws

Importantly, the SC clarified that GST Council recommendations are persuasive but not binding on Union and States, supporting cooperative federalism. The levy was struck down as it constituted double taxation on already-taxed transaction value.
