GST compensation due for all states, not just for some: FM
Not only opposition-ruled states but other states also have not been paid GST compensation for the last four months since August this year.
Speaking in the Rajya Sabha, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman admitted the delay but said that the Centre had released more than what it collected as cess in the current financial year 2019-20 till October-end.
“Till October 31 the Government of India has released Rs 9,783 crore more than the amount raised through cess,” the Minister said.
