GST Reforms: Why scrapping the 12% & 28% slabs matters

What’s the big change?

Scrapping the 12% and 28% GST slabs is the government’s latest GST news and move most items into two main rates: 5% and 18%, while keeping a higher rate for a small list of luxury/sin goods. As a result, prices become simpler, disputes fall, and many buyers may see relief.


Why scrapping 12% and 28% GST matters ✅

  • Cheaper essentials. Many daily-use items may shift to 5%, easing household budgets. 💸

  • Clearer pricing. With fewer slabs, price tags are easier to read and compare.

  • Less paperwork & fewer notices. Reduced classification fights save time and costs. ⏱️

  • Better cash flow. Faster refunds and fewer blocked credits help small firms stay liquid.
