A licence will give ecommerce like Flipkart a direct access to the GST Network (GSTN). Many companies are eyeing the GSP licence as the overall opportunity entitles uploading of over 2 billion invoices every month. "More small and medium businesses will be encouraged to sell on marketplaces like Flipkart post-GST if it can simplify their taxation for products across India. These platforms can use the GSP licence to acquire more sellers," said Nikhil Kumar, head of the developer ecosystem at India Stack.
