The 56th meeting of the GST Council was held in New Delhi under the chairpersonship of the Union Finance & Corporate Affairs Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman. The GST Council inter-alia made the recommendations relating to changes in GST tax rates, provide relief to individuals, common man, aspirational middle class and measures for facilitation of trade in GST. FAQs are also being issued for clarification of doubts. The recommendations made by the 56th GST Council are as below:

A.        CHANGES IN GST RATES OF GOODS AND SERVICES

The HSN wise rate changes are at Annexure -I and sector wise rate changes are at Annexure -II

The HSN wise rate changes are at Annexure -III and Sector wise rate changes are at Annexure -IV.

 

 

 

The Council was of the view that the changes in GST rates of goods and services need to be implemented with effect from 22nd September 2025. However, keeping in view the requirement of funds to fulfill the obligation under the compensation cess account, the Council decided that the changes in GST rates may be implemented in a phased manner as follows:

 

B.        MEASURES FOR FACILITATION OF TRADE

 

 

The Goods and Services Tax Appellate Tribunal (GSTAT) will be made operational for accepting appeals before end of September and will commence hearing before end of December this year. The Council also recommended the date of 30.06.2026 for limitation of filing of backlog appeals. The Principal Bench of the GSTAT will also serve as the National Appellate Authority for Advance Ruling. These measures will significantly strengthen the institutional framework of GST by providing a robust mechanism for dispute resolution, ensuring consistency in advance rulings, and offering greater certainty to taxpayers. This will further enhance trust, transparency, and ease of doing business under the GST regime.

MEASURES FOR FACILITATION OF TRADE

1.         Sanction of risk-based provisional refund to facilitate refund claims on account of zero-rated supply of goods or services or both (i.e. export of goods or services or both  or supply to a Special Economic Zone developer/unit for authorised operations.): The Council recommended amendment in rule 91(2) of CGST Rules, 2017 to provide for sanction of 90% of refund claimed as provisional refund by the proper officer on the basis of identification and evaluation of risk by the system. However, in exceptional cases, the proper officer may for reasons to be recorded in writing, instead of granting refund on provisional basis proceed with the detailed scrutiny of the refund claim.

            The Council recommended issuance of a notification to notify certain category of registered persons who may not be granted refund on provisional basis. This provision shall be operationalised from 1st November, 2025.

2.         Proposal for Risk-Based Provisional Sanction of refunds arising out of inverted duty structure (IDS): The Council recommended amending section 54(6) of the CGST Act, 2017, to provide for sanction of 90% of refund claimed on provisional basis, in cases arising out of inverted duty structure, on similar lines as is presently available for refund in respect of zero-rated supply.

It has been decided by the Central Government that, pending requisite amendments in CGST Act, 2017, instructions shall be issued by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) to direct Central Tax field formations for grant of provisional refund equivalent to 90% of amount claimed as refund, arising out of Inverted Duty Structure on the basis of identification and evaluation of risk by the system, as in the case of provisional refunds on account of zero-rated supplies. This shall be operationalized from 1st November, 2025.

3.         Amendment in CGST Act to provide for GST Refunds in respect of low value export consignments: The Council recommended amendment to section 54(14) of the CGST Act, 2017 so as to remove the threshold limit for refunds arising out of exports made with payment of tax.  This will particularly help small exporters making exports through courier, postal mode etc.

4.         Simplified GST Registration Scheme for Small and Low-Risk Businesses: In order to simplify the registration process, the Council has recommended the introduction of an optional simplified GST registration scheme wherein registration shall be granted on an automated basis within three working days from the date of submission of application in case of low risk applicants and  applicants who based on their own assessment, determine that their output tax liability on supplies to registered persons will not exceed Rs. 2.5 lakh per month (inclusive of CGST, SGST/UTGST and IGST).  The scheme will provide for voluntary opting into and withdrawal from the scheme. 

This will benefit around 96% of new applicants applying for GST registration. This shall be operationalized from 1st November, 2025.

5.         Introduction of Simplified Registration Scheme for small suppliers supplying through electronic commerce operators: The Council approved in-principle, the concept of a simplified GST registration mechanism for small suppliers making supplies through e-commerce operators (ECOs) across multiple States facing challenges in maintaining principal place of business in each State as currently required under the GST framework. The detailed modalities for operationalizing the said scheme will be placed before GST Council.

It will ease compliance for such suppliers and facilitate their participation in e-commerce across States.

6.         Amendment in place of supply provisions for intermediary services under section 13(8) of the IGST Act: The Council recommended omission of clause (b) of section 13(8) of IGST Act 2017. Accordingly, after the said law amendment, the place of supply for “intermediary services” will be determined as per the default provision under section 13(2) of the IGST Act, 2017 i.e. the location of the recipient of such services. This will help Indian exporters of such services to claim export benefits.

7.1       Amendment of section 15 and section 34 of CGST Act, 2017 in respect of Post Sale Discount: The Council has recommended:

7.2       Issuance of circular on certain issues pertaining to Post Sale Discount: In order to remove ambiguity and legal disputes, the Council recommended to provide clarification on certain issues pertaining to Post Sale Discount namely, –
