He emphasized that the amendments in GST rates and rules have been designed to reduce the burden on consumers, simplify the system for business holders, and promote transparency.
Ashok Koul said that the GST is not merely a tax reform, rather it is a step towards strengthening the economy by bringing every stakeholder on one platform. He stressed that the recent changes introduced by the Modi government are focused on consumer welfare, ensuring that essential goods and services become more affordable, while also providing relief and ease of business to traders.
Koul said that in the recent GST reform, by lowering GST slabs to 5% on several goods and rationalizing rates in transport and allied sectors, the reforms aim is to reduce costs for consumers, ease compliance for traders, and enhance competitiveness for Indian businesses. He further added that the opposition parties have always misled people regarding GST, but the reality is that it has brought uniformity, eliminated cascading taxes, and provided a fair structure that benefits both buyers and sellers.
