<description><![CDATA[ India has rolled out the most sweeping overhaul of the Goods and Services Tax since its launch in 2017. Popularly called the September &quot;2025 GST reform&quot;,  simplifies tax slabs, lowers rates on essentials, zero-rates life and health insurance, and tidies up several long-standing irritants across sectors. It is designed to boost consumption, ease compliance, and make the system more predictable for businesses—while keeping a tough stance on luxury and “sin” goods. ]]></description>
