GST Tax Rates on some common items

Tax RatesProducts
0.25%Cut and semi-polished stones are included under this tax slab.
5%Household necessities such as edible oil, sugar, spices, tea, and coffee (except instant) are included. Coal, Mishti/Mithai (Indian Sweets) and Life-saving drugs are also covered under this GST slab.

18%Hair oil, toothpaste and soaps, capital goods and industrial
intermediaries are covered in this slab.
28%Luxury items such as small cars, consumer durables like AC and Refrigerators, premium cars, cigarettes and aerated drinks, High-end motorcycles are included here.

Though edible items like sugar, tea and coffee are included in the 5% slab, milk does not attract any tax under the new GST regime. The idea behind this is to ensure that basic food items are available for everyone but instant food is kept out of this category.

  • Basic household items like toothpaste and hair oil, which currently attract 28% tax, will be taxed at 18% only.
  • Sweets will also be taxable at 5%.
  • Tax rates on coal has also been reduced from 11.69% to just 5% in order to relieve the pressure on power industries.
  • GST also gives a major push to domestic industries as they will be able to procure seamless input credit for capital goods. Make in India campaign is set to flourish after this reform.
