GST Council

ENA (potable alcohol) for human consumption will be exempt from GST

There have been worries that by operating from abroad, internet gambling platforms would avoid paying GST. However, one official claimed that in these situations, the tax administration will deduct GST from the payment sources.

Surprisingly, the most pressing concern for the public, out of all the amendments is of online gaming. The finance minister made it public that the taxes on online games will be 28 percent. 

The tax on online gaming companies would be imposed without making any differentiation based on whether the games required skill or were based on chance.
