The government’s move to bring small businesses under Goods and Services Tax chain is positive for the growth of service providers, a PTI report cited a startup as saying. The startup, GST Dost, estimates the total value of GST and related services to be over Rs 12,000 crore.
“The introduction of e-invoicing for companies of Rs 100 crore and above will open new business opportunity for us. There are approximately 13,500 businesses having turnover of over Rs 100 crore in India,” GST DOST president Vikas Dhanania told PTI.
