Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman launched the Goods and Services Tax Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT) on September 24, 2025, to simplify and speed up GST dispute resolution. GSTAT will have a Principal Bench in New Delhi and 31 State Benches, providing a unified forum for appeals against Central and State GST orders. The tribunal introduces a digital platform for online filings, virtual hearings, and case tracking, aimed at reducing litigation delays and boosting transparency. Hearings will begin from December 2025, with appeals being filed in phased manner until June 2026. The move reinforces India’s vision of a citizen-friendly, efficient, and predictable GST system.
