The GST Council has decided to clear the pending GST compensation of Rs. 16,982 crore for June, 2022. As no amount was available in the GST compensation Fund, Centre decided to release this amount from its own resources and the same will be recouped from the future compensation Cess collection. With this release, Centre cleared the entire provisionally admissible compensation due for five years as envisaged in the GST (Compensation to States) Act, 2017. In addition, Centre would also clear the admissible final GST compensation to those States who have provided the revenue figures as certified by the Accountant General of the States. The details of GST compensation released to each states for the last five years as given below (Table -1)
