The Group of Ministers (GoM) on Rate Rationalisation, formed by the Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council, has decided to accept the Centre’s two-rate structure proposal for GST and will be recommending this to the GST Council, the chairperson of the GoM and Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary said on Thursday (August 21, 2025).
“It was the Centre’s proposal to end two slabs of GST, the 12% and 28% slabs,” Mr. Choudhary told reporters. “We discussed that proposal and have supported it. We have recommended it, and now the GST Council will decide on this.”
