The Finance Minister recalled the fragmented state of Indirect Tax System in India where every state was effectively a distinct market. Multiple Tax Rates laws and procedures, cascading of taxes and check posts at every inter-state border were all burdens on taxpayer as well as common man. Smt. Sitharaman particularly emphasised the positive impact of GST on consumers by reducing their tax burden and recalled that on many common use items, tax incidence under GST has become lower as compared to Pre GST rates such as Tea, Milk Powder, Hair Oil, Toothpaste soap etc. Even after implementation of GST, rates have been pruned on common use items to reduce the burden on consumers, the Finance Minister said. These include goods such as common household items like kitchenware, furniture, electrical equipments, bathroom toilet fittings, refrigerators, TV, certain food items etc. Smt. Sitharaman also highlighted the sensitivity of GST Council in reducing rates even post introduction of GST.
