GST Council Meeting | How Council's Decision Will Impact Consumers | GST Meet Expectations

GST Council Meeting | How Council's Decision Will Impact Consumers | GST Meet Expectations The GST Council is all set to take a final call during its crucial two-day meeting on Sept. 3-4 on the Centre’s proposal to slash GST rates on more than 150 items as part of its comprehensive rate rejig exercise. The move aims to ease the tax burden on households and spur consumption ahead of the festive season. The proposals include shifting several items from the higher 12% and 18% GST slabs to the 5% slab or even to the Nil GST category, which means complete exemption.
