June GST Collections Reach ₹1,94,812 Crore with 34.6% Import IGST Boost

According to the Finance Ministry, India’s gross GST collections rose 13.9% year-on-year in June 2026 to ₹1,94,812 crore. Net revenue after refunds came in at ₹1,62,377 crore, reflecting an 11.2% increase over the same month last year.

Refunds for the month stood at ₹32,436 crore, up 29.1% year-on-year, growing faster than gross collections and narrowing the net figure relative to the headline number.

What Drove June’s GST Growth?

June’s GST growth was led by a sharp rise in import-linked collections, while domestic GST revenue expanded at a more moderate pace.

How Did CGST, SGST, and IGST Perform?

Component-wise, Central GST and State GST recorded moderate growth, while Integrated GST from domestic transactions grew slightly faster. The sharpest increase came from IGST on imports.

State-Wise GST Collections: Maharashtra Leads, Uttar Pradesh Grows Fastest

Maharashtra remained the top contributor in absolute terms, collecting ₹30,714 crore, up 9% year-on-year, followed by Karnataka, Gujarat, Haryana, Tamil Nadu, and Uttar Pradesh, respectively.

Final Outlook

June collections were supported primarily by the sharp jump in import-linked GST rather than a broad acceleration in domestic activity. With refunds rising faster than gross revenue, the net collections picture was more measured than the headline figure suggests. Whether the import-led strength carries into July will be the key data point to watch in next month’s GST release.
