In this regard, it was the suggestion of the Empowered Committee that the Centre should consider retaining the exemption threshold of Rs.1.5 crore (presently available under Central Excise) for goods while the CGST threshold for services and the SGST threshold for both goods and services would be Rs.10 lakh. It is fundamental to a dual GST that every transaction constituting a supply of goods and services receive similar treatment under CGST and SGST.
From now onwards, the Traffic Police cannot catch a motorist just to examine the driving license or vehicle documents.They can catch you only if you have violated any traffic laws or if you are driving drunk. Remember that when caught for traffic violation, the fine you pay must be limited to the violation. In other words, the police can’t bloat the bill saying that you have no insurance cover or emission certificate, etc.

From now on, the price of petrol will be revised once a month. However, there will be no immediate change in its price. Such a decision was on the cards ever since the oil ministry decided, on June 25, to deregulate the petrol price.
