State rankings

Who collects the most, who grows the fastest — ranked state by state. Each ranking uses a single, clearly-defined metric; we never mix different measures in one list.

What these numbers do and don't mean

GST collected within a state:: tax generated on supplies made inside the state. Reflects where consumption/activity happens.
Tax attributable to taxpayers:: direct tax is credited to the state where the taxpayer is assessed (often a corporate head office), not where income was earned.
SGST accruing to the state:: the SGST a state keeps after IGST settlement — different from GST collected in the state.
Union devolution:: the state's share of Union taxes, transferred under the Finance Commission formula — money the Union collects, not the state.

City-level collections

No official source publishes direct tax collection at city or district level. CBDT's finest published geographic cut is the State/UT break-up (Time Series Data Table 1.2) and, administratively, the Pr.CCIT/CCA region. CBDT regions (Mumbai, Delhi, Karnataka & Goa, Tamil Nadu, etc.) are multi-city jurisdictions, not cities. No downloadable city-level dataset exists for direct tax or GST (GST is published at state and CGST-commissionerate/zone level, not city level).

Closest honest comparison: use the state a city sits in. For example, for Mumbai or Pune, see Maharashtra; for Bengaluru, see Karnataka.
