GST 2.0: Nirmala Sitharaman Announces Huge GST Rate Reductions to Benefit the Common Man

GST 2.0: Nirmala Sitharaman Announces Huge GST Rate Reductions to Benefit the Common Man The much-anticipated 56th GST Council Meeting has just concluded in New Delhi, bringing landmark changes to India’s indirect tax structure. From September 22, 2025 — the first day of Navratri — two new GST tax slabs will come into effect. The Council has also cleared a 40% special rate for sin goods and accepted all proposals raised by the Group of Ministers (GoM). Stay with us as we bring you real-time updates, reactions, and what these reforms mean for businesses and consumers across India. The Council increased taxes on sin goods such as pan masala, aerated drinks, caffeinated beverages, and tobacco products. Rates on these items have gone up to as high as 40%. This move is part of a health-driven approach to discourage consumption of harmful products while generating higher revenue. Bidis, however, have seen a reduction from 28% to 18%, considering their impact on the unorganised sector. Students and educational institutions received some relief as the Council reduced GST on stationery items like exercise books, graph books, pencils, sharpeners, and erasers to either Nil or 5%. Maps, globes, and atlases have also been moved to the Nil category. #nirmalasitharaman #gstnews #gstcouncilmeet #gstreforms #financeminister #gstnews #RepublicWorld #RepublicTV #BreakingNews #RepublicNews #IndiaNews #LiveNews #RepublicExclusive #RepublicWorldLive #ArnabGoswami #RepublicDigital #NationFirst Watch More ➡️ Videos On:    / @republicdefence   Visit Now ➡️ Full Story On: https://www.republicworld.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Republic TV is India's no.1 English news channel since its launch.
