The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council will likely discuss the second report of a Group of Ministers (GoM) on online gaming, horse racing and casinos during its July 11 meeting. The panel has failed to reach a consensus on the taxation rate, with Goa having suggested an 18 per cent rate for online gaming, while the other seven member states recommended a 28 per cent rate for all three categories.
Also on the discussion table are an exemption for cancer medicine Dinutuximab (Qarziba), and a clarification on the applicability of the tax rate for multi-utility vehicles and food or beverages served in multiplexes.
