Under the GST tax rate to be fixed to the country has not been fixed yet. Congress demands that this rate should be fixed at 18 percent. This will reduce tax evasion and increase tax collection. It also is believed that after the GST tax structure will be transparent
If you assume the government decides on 18 per cent GST rate will benefit you, because both VAT and Excise will be deleted and you have to pay 18 per cent GST, then most things will be cheaper. Currently you leave certain things up 12.5 percent on other things pay excise duty and VAT at the rate of pay according to their state. This means that roughly 25 to 26 per cent tax you pay. Brbar The GST tax will be reduced and on arrival you will be goods cheaper.
You currently pay 14.5 per cent on services. Such as 1000's mobile bill pay service tax at Rs 145. GST will be 18 per cent after it means that you will have to pay Rs 180 instead of 145. In fact, the food in the restaurants, air tickets, insurance premium etc, all services will be expensive.
GST, states are not unanimous. There are many differences. In many people's minds is the dilemma that if the tax is imposed, it will happen slab. Who will take the decision on the tax.
