    <fulldesc>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;New Delhi, Feb 1 (KNN)&lt;/strong&gt; From April this year, a simplified return format for GST will be introduced, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said in her Budget Speech.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;In her second Budget presentation, the finance minister said GST has resulted in gains of Rs 1 lakh crore to consumers.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt; Average household now saves 4 per cent in monthly expense after the rollout of GST,  Sitharaman said.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;She said GST has led to formalisation of the economy and it has helped in vanishing the dreaded 'inspector raj' of the past.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;It has also resulted in efficiency gains in the transport and logistics sectors.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;Terming her predecessor, Arun Jaitley, as the 'architect of GST', Sitharaman said that GST is an historic structural reform and has resulted in Rs 1 lakh crore gains to consumers and helped transport and logistics sectors.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;GST was introduced by late finance Minister Arun Jaitley, which came into effect from July 1, 2017.&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
