Goods and GST Bill passed |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Dear All, GST Bill is passed in Rajya Sabha on 03. 08.2016. A panel under chief economic adviser Arvind Subramanian has recommended a revenue-neutral rate of 15-15.5%, with a standard rate of 17-18% be levied on most goods and all services. But, there has been no agreement yet on rates of various goods and services, which remains a tricky issue. According to the Bill, passed in the Lok Sabha in May 2015, the rates were to be decided by a GST council headed by the central finance minister with state finance ministers as members. Let us wait. Thanks. Posts / Replies Showing Replies 176 to 200 of 1401 Records Page: 1 ....456789101112........ 57
