What are GST rates & why they matter?

From 22nd September 2025, GST has been simplified into two slabs – 5% and 18% – with a special 0% rate for essentials and a 40% rate for luxury and sin goods.

0%

This rate still applies to fundamental essentials, such as some fresh food items.

5%

Now covers many everyday essentials such as packaged food, soaps, medicines, toothpaste, milk products, and even life & health insurance (now fully GST-exempt).

18%

Applies to standard goods and services, including appliances, TVs, cement, and small cars (previously at higher rates).

40%

Introduced for “sin goods” and luxury items, such as tobacco, cigarettes, and high-end cars. The previous 28% slab is removed for these goods.

Useful Tips Beyond GST Rates

Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM)

Composition Scheme

Input Tax Credit (ITC)

It’s great for small businesses with less paperwork and fixed tax rates. But as your business grows, the scheme may no longer serve your needs.

What to keep in mind

You can’t claim input tax credit on your purchases
You can’t issue GST tax invoices — this may be a problem for B2B clients
You can’t sell outside your state
You may lose customers who need proper tax invoices to claim their own ITC

When it’s time to switch

You’ve started interstate sales
Your input GST is high, and margins are getting affected
You want to scale via e-commerce platforms

With TallyPrime, you can switch between schemes easily while keeping your data intact.
