Government of India had aimed to implement the Goods and Services Tax for reducing fiscal deficits and reforming excise duties in April 2010. This research has made clear the tax mechanism of Dual GST suitable and feasible for Federal India. The GST has not been implemented until April 2013, because an agreement between center and states governments isn’t reached. And the recommendation of 13th Finance Commission has not changed the structure of federal fiscal system. The 14th Finance Commission constituted in December 2012 is expected to take a task of reforming federal fiscal system. Then it is recognized that the expenditure reform is more important for fiscal consolidation.
