Chairman of the empowered committee of states' finance ministers Sushil Kumar Modi would hold discussions with Union finance minister Pranab Mukherjee on matters related to goods and service tax (GST) in Delhi on Tuesday, specially with regard to ways and means to compensate losses that the states would suffer after GST comes into force.

Besides, the participating finance ministers would review the status of tax collection in respective states
