GoM to look into Andhra Pradesh's demand for 1% calamity cess on luxe goods

The GST Council will form a group of ministers (GoM) to explore Andhra Pradesh's request for a 1% calamity cess on luxury goods for disaster relief. This follows flooding in the state. The GoM will examine the process for such state-specific levies, considering there's currently no defined process within the GST law.
