Zero-Rating in GST: Boosting Exports and Economic Growth Through Tax Incentives

  • Exports are zero-rated under the GST regime, allowing for Input Tax Credit on goods and services supplied outside India
  • Zero-rating ensures goods are supplied without VAT or GST, fostering competition and increasing exports
  • Countries like the Netherlands, Canada, EU, Australia, China, Singapore, and India have adopted zero-rating for exports
  • Benefits of zero-rating include increased competition, investment in SEZs, higher exports, forex generation, and balancing of balance of payments
  • IGST Act, 2017 allows for zero-rating of exports and supplies to SEZs, with ITC available on such supplies
