System can handle 60,000 users per second, says GST Network chairman Navin Kumar

Nearly 90 lakh users; up to 1.2 lakh transactions per second; 320 crore transactions per month and just 60,000 tax officers. Those are just some of the mind-boggling numbers that define the coming launch of GST on July 1.

Nearly 90 lakh users; up to 1.2 lakh transactions per second; 320 crore transactions per month and just 60,000 tax officers. Those are just some of the mind-boggling numbers that define the coming launch of GST on July 1. At the centre of this all is the chairman of GST Network Limited, Navin Kumar, the man in charge of the technology to make India's biggest tax reform work seamlessly across the length and breadth of the country. Nothing will go wrong. We have been testing and testing and testing every day. My only worry is this 10 lakh new tax payers who will rush on the first day, June 25, to register. The migration will close after three months. New registrations will remain open through the year. Wish us well.
