GUWAHATI, Sept 22: Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Monday appealed to businesse houses, shops and traders in the state to comply with the rules and ensure that 100 per cent benefit of price cuts, because of the rationalised GST rates, are passed on to consumers.
The reduced rates along with increased income tax exemption limits will lead to over 2.5 lakh crore in savings for the people, he said.
‘These efforts, coupled with historically low inflation in Assam will lead to the perfect trinity – fast paced growth, higher consumption and robust savings,’ the CM said in a post on X.
