The STPAM, now renamed GSTPAM, is governed by its constitution, registered with the Charity Commissioner, and under the Societies Act. The elected President, Officer Bearers and 15 members of the Managing Committee conduct the activities of the Association.

Its main objective is to educate the public in general and the members in particular on Indirect Taxes operative in the State of Maharashtra and the whole of India.

The STPAM has produced stalwarts like Late R. V. Patel, Late N. C. Mehta, Late B. C. Joshi, P. V. Surte, S. S. Gaitonde, P. C. Joshi, T. M. Chhatpar and Late J. K. Sheth, to name a few. Under their guidance, the Association is confidently marching ahead to achieve its objectives. The young generation is taking over the leadership gradually from them, and these stalwarts, in turn, have reposed their complete trust in the young administration.

With the advent of GST, the Association, now known as the GST Practitioners' Association of Maharashtra, has started spreading awareness and knowledge on GST and has taken a giant leap into the goods and service tax arena for educating its members.

Lastly, whenever our motherland faces natural calamities or neighbours' aggression, the association is always at the forefront to render monetary help.
