Re: Indian Economy News & Discussion - Nov 27 2017
GST cuts are too radical. They should have just brought GST rates down one level. So abolish 28% and shift everything taxable at this rate to 18%. All 18% to 12%. All 12% to 5%. That way, Govt. won't have lost huge amount of revenue and also made things cheaper than before
