From Monday, September 22, prices of many daily items will fall after the new GST reforms. Prime Minister Narendra Modi called it a “GST bachat utsav”. Most goods will now attract 5% or 18% tax instead of the earlier four slabs. Essential items like medicines, ghee, butter, milk, ice cream, soap, toothpaste, and small electronics will be cheaper. Amul has already cut prices of over 700 products, including butter, paneer, cheese, ice cream, chocolates, and bakery items. Mother Dairy announced similar cuts. The move aims to boost consumption and make everyday products more affordable for citizens. (PC: HT)
