It replaced a complex tax structure with a unified tax system to enhance efficiency and compliance. However, given India&#8217;s federal structure, a single GST system was not feasible. Instead, India adopted a <strong>Dual GST model<\/strong>, which ensures revenue distribution between the central and state governments.
