Multiplex Industry Seeks GST Rationalisation on Movie Tickets to Boost Screen Expansion

The multiplex industry has called for a rationalization of the GST rates on movie tickets to support business and encourage screen expansion. The industry argues that a uniform GST rate across all ticket prices, rather than the current tiered structure, would simplify the tax system and provide a predictable environment for growth. This is a crucial step towards ensuring that the multiplex industry remains a viable and attractive investment. The industry also suggests that this change would stimulate cinema attendance, further benefiting the sector and contributing to the overall economy. This move is expected to boost consumer spending and investment in the entertainment sector.
