Revised GST Slab Rates in India 2017 by
23rd GST council meeting
Goods and services tax is continuously upgraded by the GST
council for better results for the proper implementation. In the latest 23rd
GST council meeting, several important decisions were taken by the panel and
GoM to resolve immediate problems of the business community.
There is a lot of speculation on the merging of slab tax
rates and the same has been conveyed by Arvind Subramaniam in its suggestion.
It is said that the two tax rates i.e. 12% and 18% might get merged into
single slab rate across the product portfolio in order to maintain the
multiplicity of tax rate applicability on a range of products. The suggestion
is based on the fact study and has been under review for further step and
action. In the recent 23rd GST council meeting, there are around 178 products
which were slashed from the higher 28% slab rate to the lower slab for the
benefit of market and consumers. Also, there were changes in the filing period
which was reduced from monthly to quarterly making easier compliance for the
small medium enterprises. Overall, the council took noteworthy decisions in its
meeting and made the overall easier environment for the business units to
operate.
