India's Goods and Services Tax (GST) system is reporting record collections, with gross GST collections reaching ₹22.08 lakh crore in FY25 and ₹2.43 lakh crore in April 2026 alone. However, businesses are raising concerns about the system's ability to handle increasing transaction volumes and the complexities of compliance requirements. With over 1.5 crore registered taxpayers and billions of invoices processed annually, the GST infrastructure is now one of the largest digital tax systems globally. Experts like Hari Om Yadav and Samarth Setia highlight the need for real-time compliance and system reliability, as even minor disruptions can significantly impact businesses. The introduction of stricter compliance rules, such as e-invoicing for firms with turnover above ₹5 crore, adds further pressure on the system. To sustain this growth, experts suggest that India must invest in a more robust GST infrastructure that can support real-time data processing and intelligent risk profiling, akin to the reliability expected from payment networks.
