Why is GST cess imposed?

GST cess is imposed on the supply of goods or services to provide compensation to the States for loss of revenue due to the implementation of GST in India. If any funds are unutilised, then at the end of the transition period, it would be shared equally by the Central and State Government.

State Government’s share will be distributed in the ratio of their total revenues from State Tax on the goods and services in the last year of the transition period
