Have you ever read the GST collection in the news and just wondered how this affects me, and scroll past it? That’s how a common man thinks, and there is nothing wrong with it. Whether you are a business owner, a salaried employee or a freelancer, you should not ignore this number. It tells you a story of the economy of India as a whole, and also the state’s economy where you live.
In this blog, we will walk you through December 2025 GST collection and state-wise breakout so that you can understand the larger picture of the economy.
GST Collection in December 2025: The Big Figure
The gross GST collections of ₹1.74-1.75 lakh crore, approximately 6-6.1 per cent more than December 2024 in India.
That one line tells you a couple of things:
The GST system is bringing good revenue for the government even after the GST rate rationalisation.
The economy is vibrant, individuals and corporations are still spending, selling and paying tax on business activities.
You might be wondering why the GST collection softened after the rationalisation move.
In November 2025, GST collections were slightly softer at about 1.70 lakh crore or only 0.7% higher on a year basis.
The data speaks for itself; there was an immediate effect of rationalisation on the revenue, but in the longer term, it seems to be on a growth trajectory.
