For Shoppers (You!):
Good news for some things! Certain everyday items and packaged foods might become a bit cheaper, saving you some ₹. But, if you're eyeing something luxurious, it could get a little more expensive, costing more ₹.
For Staying Out of Trouble:
Using the correct GST rates is crucial. It helps you avoid fines and makes sure your GST returns (the reports you file) are correct and smooth.
What Does This All Mean?
These changes are designed to make GST clearer, reduce confusion, and hopefully make it easier for everyone to follow the rules. Both businesses and regular consumers will start to see the effects of these new rates from September 22, 2025.
