The GST Council reduces the GST structure from four slabs (5%, 12%, 18%, 28%) to two main rates—5% (merit rate) and 18% (standard rate), and a 40% special rate for sin/luxury goods, which will be effective from 22 September 2025.

The simplified and stable tax structure is introduced to ease long-term investments, encourage compliance, and drive economic growth for businesses.

The change in GST slabs eliminates confusion over product classification by applying the same tax rate to similar items.

A reduction in GST rates for consumer goods and lower prices will increase the demand and lead to subsequent industrial growth.
