Certain terms from various Acts do not provide required interpretation in various cases, yet creates an ambiguity from different people perspectives. This usually creates distortion to arrive at a noble conclusion. So The General Clauses Act was passed to pave way for a common understanding of the terms, harmonizing the Acts in such cases; Also provides in-depth view of concepts, which can't be understood from section:2 of all the Acts as well!
