Ministry of Consumer Affairs Allows Revised MRP on Unsold Stock After GST Rate Changes Till Dec 2025

The Ministry of Consumer Affairs has granted a significant concession, permitting businesses to affix a revised Maximum Retail Price (MRP) on their unsold stock to reflect recent GST rate changes. This relief, valid until December 2025, is a proactive step to ensure a smooth transition and prevent market disruption following the GST overhaul. It addresses the practical challenge of managing inventory while complying with the new tax structure. By allowing this, the government aims to facilitate a seamless flow of goods, reduce the financial burden on businesses, and ensure consumers benefit from the GST cuts without facing stock unavailability or price confusion.
