GST rate slabs

Quick reference · GST 2.0 · effective 22 September 2025

0%

exempt / nil-rated

3%

gold, silver, jewellery

5%

merit rate

18%

standard rate

40%

demerit goods

The 12% and 28% slabs were abolished on 22 September 2025. Invoices raised at those rates before the change remain valid — the rate follows the time of supply, so historical documents do not need reissuing. For supplies straddling the change date, the time-of-supply rules decide the rate; check those with your CA before amending anything.
