The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council at its 16th meeting here on
Sunday has revised the rates of 7-8 items from the fitments originally
made in the four-slab indirect tax structure, official sources said.
The council's final meeting continued during the day ahead of the rollout of the new tax regime proposed from July 1.
Following
the 15th meeting of the council here earlier this month, held to decide
on the six remaining items, including gold and beedi, Finance Minister
Arun Jaitley, who heads the council, had said that a committee of
officers would examine rate adjustments, if any, based on the
representations received from different trade and industry associations.
Their recommendations are being taken up by the council on Sunday.
All
goods and services under the GST regime have been categorised in four
tax slabs of 5, 12, 18 and 28 per cent, besides those items that attract
zero tax.
