The GST Council’s latest decision has given a major push to India’s industrial and manufacturing sectors. Moving beyond consumer goods, the Council has extended relief to critical industrial inputs — including coal, cement, chemicals, and fibres.
This move is expected to reduce production costs, increase competitiveness, and stimulate economic growth, offering much-needed support to businesses across sectors.
Key Highlights of the Decision:
Coal: Tax relief to lower energy costs for industries.
Cement: Reduced levies to support infrastructure and real estate growth.
Chemicals: Relief aimed at boosting pharma, textiles, and FMCG sectors.
Fibres: Cost reduction expected to benefit textiles, apparel, and exports.
Industry experts believe this tax rationalisation will strengthen supply chains, encourage domestic manufacturing, and improve India’s standing in global trade.
