Method and source
- Table 3 of the GST Council’s monthly revenue report, “State-wise growth of GST Revenues during August, 2026”: domestic collections only, excluding GST on imports. Figures in ₹ crore as printed; growth is the whole percentage the report prints.
- The report marks all figures provisional. Lakshadweep has no August 2025 figure in the report.
- Assam’s +162% (₹1,403 crore to ₹3,679 crore) is as printed. A single-month jump that large usually reflects a one-off payment rather than a trend; compare it with the next month before relying on it.
- Collections from “Other Territory” and “Center Jurisdiction” are not tied to a state and are left off the map; they total ₹787 crore.
