In a written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha, Minister of State for Finance Anurag Singh Thakur had said that this estimate of GDP revenue was based on better GDP growth in FY 2020-21. But, recently released figures by the Statistics Office show that nominal GDP growth rate has dropped by 22.6 percent in the first quarter.

This biggest reason for decrease in GST revenue has also been the lockdown imposed in March in the wake of Corona virus epidemic. Meanwhile, economic activities were stalled and the GST return filing timeline was also extended without interest, late fees or penalty.
