“The GST council has come with historical changes in GST Rates on 03 September 2025. While reduction in the number of broader slabs from four to two will enable ease of doing business, rationalization of rates across the sectors is likely to benefit consumers as a whole. We believe that these rate rationalizations will steer demand across Auto, Cement, FMCG, Consumer Durables, Textiles, Footwear, Insurance, and to benefit the economy, overall. This development is also likely to smoothen the impact of recent Tariff Hikes by the US and could support GDP growth. On companies’ side, as this benefit is supposed to be passed on to consumers, the impact shall be limited to demand boost and resultant operating efficiencies. From a market perspective, it will be positive for medium to long-run investors.”
