The decision of GST Council on pruning of the 28% slab list would be a welcome move for many industries in mass consumption space. In certain cases, it is also likely to bring down the total tax impact even lower than earlier regime which would be a big relief to the industry as well as consumers.
With 23rd meeting of GST Council scheduled for 9-10 November, 2017 to consider various implementation issues and rationalize rates etc, here are few suggestions which ought to be decided by the Council.
I would like to request you all to continue vigorously with the GST outreach programmes. Consequent to the GST Council meeting, the stakeholders need to be updated on any decision taken. Therefore, I would like rigorous efforts to be made under your personal supervision to disseminate clear and updated information to both the officers and staff of the department and the stakeholders.
