Petrol-Diesel Price: The general public can get relief from the rising inflation of petrol and diesel for a long time. This proposal can be considered in the 45th GST Council meeting.


New Delhi: Petrol- Diesel Price: The general public can get relief from the rising inflation of Petrol-Diesel (Petrol-Diesel Price Hike). A panel of ministers will consider the tax on petroleum products under a single national rate on the Goods and Services Tax (GST). According to those with knowledge of the matter, important steps can be taken for a possible major change in consumer price and government revenue.

A decision on this can be taken in the 45th GST Council meeting to be held in Lucknow on Friday. A panel headed by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman will consider it.

How does the GST system change?

In fact, if any changes are to be made in the GST system, approval is required from three-fourths of the panel. Representatives of all states and territories will be involved in this. However, some of this proposal has opposed the inclusion of fuel in the GST because they say that in such a situation, it will hand over a major revenue-generating tool to the central government.
