Indirect taxes in India exist when the government imposes taxes on goods and services rather than on income or profits. The Goods and Services Tax (GST), implemented in July 2017, is the primary indirect tax system, replacing multiple previous taxes. Other forms of indirect taxes include customs duties and excise duties. These taxes are typically included in the price of goods and services, meaning consumers pay them indirectly.
