Abstract
The implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) in India has significantly transformed the country’s trade and taxation landscape, aligning it more closely with global economic standards. This study, titled “Global Trade Transformation and the Role of GST in Strengthening India’s Economic Position,” examines how GST has influenced revenue generation, export growth, and logistics efficiency. Secondary data from NITI Aayog (2022), World Bank (2022), Ministry of Finance (2023), and the Reserve Bank of India (2023) were analyzed to evaluate GST’s macroeconomic impact. The results show that GST improved revenue collection efficiency by about 40%, increased export competitiveness by 35%, and decreased logistical costs by 25%. These results indicate that GST has streamlined India’s indirect tax system, enhanced compliance, and facilitated smoother interstate trade, thereby improving India’s global trade position. According to the study's findings, maximising the long-term economic benefits of the GST requires consistent policy revisions, digital integration in tax administration, and ongoing performance monitoring.
