GST Rule and Its Effect on Domestic Cooking Gas
GST or Goods and Services Tax(GST) was introduced in our country on 1 July 2017. Taxes under GST have been 0%, 5%, 12%, 18%, and 28% GST. All the domestic LPG cylinders fall under the 5% tax bracket and therefore, the final price of your cooking gas also includes the GST in it. However, when you have already exhausted your 12 subsidised cylinders a year, you will have to pay 18% GST after that on every cylinder.
Many states were not taxing on cooking gas before the introduction of GST. Therefore, domestic cooking was tax-free before but since there is GST in this country, you are also paying a tax on every LPG cylinder that you buy.
