State GST

SGST

Component of GST levied by the State Government on intra-state supply of goods or services.

What it means

SGST is the state's share of GST on an intra-state transaction. It is governed by each state's State Goods and Services Tax Act. For an 18% GST rate on an intra-state supply, SGST is 9% (and CGST is 9%).

For Union Territories without a legislature (e.g., Chandigarh, Andaman & Nicobar), UTGST is levied instead of SGST.
