What happened
Domestic GST collections in India rose 15.8% to ₹1.59 lakh crore. This growth occurred alongside a strong consumption story, with passenger car sales soaring 14% to over 525,000 units and digital payments hitting 25.47 billion, up 23% in October. The economy grew 7.8% in the June quarter, prompting the IMF to raise its FY27 growth forecast to 7% from 6.4%.

Why it matters
The increase in GST collections reinforces national revenue mobilization and suggests strong domestic economic health. The growth in consumption, supported by rising power consumption and diesel sales, indicates that the economy is growing at a steady pace despite global headwinds.
