Indian sellers warn a 35% tax on soft drinks and tobacco could harm businesses and boost illicit sales.
The Indian Sellers Collective has urged the Finance Minister and GST Council to reject a proposed 35% tax on demerit goods like soft drinks, cigarettes, and tobacco.
The group argues this would complicate compliance, harm retailers' profits, and boost the illicit market.
They fear it will benefit foreign producers and harm small businesses, making these goods unaffordable for many.
The proposal will be discussed at the upcoming GST Council meeting on December 21.
