GST | Power sector is safe
After a decade of political stand-off, the government was able to garner a consensus in Rajya Sabha, to approve the Goods and Services Tax (GST) constitutional amendment bill in August 2016. Since the parliamentary assent for the bill, which has the potential to turn the whole country into a single ´common market´, things have picked up momentum to make GST a reality at the earliest, though many experts feel that the deadline of April 1, 207 is a challenge.
