As of May 31, we cleared all the dues. There was something left in the name of dues for June. Even that is getting cleared, Nirmala Sitharaman said announcing the clearance of all GST dues to the tune of u20b916,982 crore.
The amount is not available in the compensation fund as of today, but it will be released from the government’s own resources. The same amount will be recouped from the future compensation cess collection, Sitharaman said.
