The meeting was also attended by Union Minister of State for Finance & Corporate Affairs Shri Anurag Thakur besides Finance Ministers of States & UTs and senior officers of the Ministry of Finance& States/ UTs. Let us have a look at the outcome of the 43rd GST Council Meeting Held on 12.06.2021.
Today’s meeting was held with a single-agenda that was to decide the tax rate on the COVID 19 related essentials. In the 43rd GST Council Meeting, a Group of Ministers was constituted to examine the situation and to come up with recommendations on tax relief for Covid-19 essentials.
On not reducing the GST rates on vaccines, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said that “The Centre will buy the 75% vaccine as announced and will pay its GST too. But 70 per cent of income from GST will be shared with States. Hence, When Centre is purchasing and paying GST too on Covid-19 vaccines and they are being given free of cost to the public, the GST rate will make no difference or impact on the people”
