GST means The Goods and Services Tax.
GST is an indirect tax which , when introduced will replace the very much narrower Sales Tax and Services Tax (SST).

GST is very useful as revenue raising tool.

Quick overview of GST




GST misconceptions???

There are many arguments that GST is regressive as the lower income group may need to pay more tax in proportion to their income. Yeah yeah...IMA one of them le...

Well...this be countered as essential items like basic food stuffs, will be zero rated or exempted.

On top of this greater proportion of the lower income group's spending would be zero-rated or tax-exempted goods as compared to the higher income group.

To name few consumer will not need to pay GST for critical services such as healthcare, public transportation, education and residential property.

Don't worry our Govt said they going to monitor prices closely!!!! (wink wink wink)
Govt also promised to act against those profiteer who are trying to pass their cost savings  on GST to their consumers.
