| Abstract: | The research investigates how the Goods and Services Tax (GST) together with Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) affect small business operations throughout India. The GST system became operational on July 1, 2017 to establish a single indirect tax system which replaced the previous multiple tax system to enhance business operations through simplified tax compliance. The research applies secondary data methods to analyse 128 sources, which include government reports, academic journals, SSRN working papers, RBI publications, and industry reports from 2015 until 2026. The research shows that small businesses face an average GST compliance cost of Rs. 88,000 each year which equals 2.2 percent of their total revenue, while micro enterprises face higher costs than other businesses. The financial effects of GST implementation have been positive because it eliminates tax duplication through its simplified tax system, yet it creates new operating expenses which affect about 60 percent of companies. The implementation of technology has resulted in a twofold increase in adoption rates while it stands as the most vital factor which determines its effects, yet major disparities between urban and rural areas continue to exist in digital access. The knowledge about accounting standards remains insufficient because less than 40 percent of micro business owners understand the standards which apply to their operations. The research offers 22 evidence-based recommendations which policymakers, the GST Council, ICAI, and additional stakeholders need to follow for compliance simplification, digital infrastructure enhancement, composition scheme transformation, and GST compliance integration with financial reporting systems. |
