Overview
GST registration as a Tax Collector under GST is required for entities that collect tax on behalf of the government. This includes e-commerce operators, aggregators, and marketplaces that collect tax from the buyers on behalf of the sellers as per the provisions of the GST Act. The registered Tax Collector is responsible for collecting tax from the buyers, depositing it with the government, and reporting the tax collection to the authorities.
For e-commerce operators, the TCS rate is 1% of the net value of taxable supplies.
