Capt Abhimanyu said GST would be implemented in the entire country from July 1, 2017, and would lead to a revolutionary change.
He said that a uniform tax regime would be implemented in the country through the GST after incorporating different taxes. The implementation of GST would prevent tax evasion, he added.
