FM Nirmala Sitharaman Announces Major GST Overhaul: What Changes for You on September 22

India is set for a major GST overhaul starting September 22, as Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced a new two-tier GST rate structure of 5% and 18%.

Sitharaman said the move is part of a broader “structural reform” aimed at strengthening the economy while reducing rates on essentials. The GST Council’s decision was unanimous, with no state opposing the revision.
