Abstract

The Goods and Services Tax (GST) has been one of India’s most ambitious economic reforms, aimed at unifying the domestic market, simplifying indirect taxation, and improving ease of doing business. Since its introduction in 2017, GST has undergone several rounds of rationalisation. A landmark step in this evolution came in September 2025, when the Government of India announced a significant reduction and simplification of GST rates across a wide range of goods and services. These reforms, described by the Press Information Bureau (PIB) as “Next-Generation GST Reforms,” introduced simplified slabs of 5% and 18% for most products, eliminated GST on several essentials, and simultaneously imposed a new 40% levy on ultra-luxury goods and services.
