GST council meeting
Earlier on Friday, the GST Council meeting chaired by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman also saw discussions on fuel prices in India. During the meeting, the council turned down the proposal to include fuel prices under GST. Stating it's the wrong time for it, the council further said that several states have opposed adding petroleum products under GST. Many consider GST as being a solution for the problem of near-record high petrol and diesel rates in the country, as it would end the cascading effect of tax on tax (state VAT being levied not just on the cost of production but also on the excise duty charged by the Centre on such output).
