Current GST Rate Structure
Notification No. 9/2025-Integrated Tax (Rate), dated 17 September 2025, superseded Notification No. 1/2017-Integrated Tax (Rate), subject to the statutory saving for matters before supersession. The operative schedules provide rates of 5%, 18%, 40%, 3%, 0.25%, 1.5% and 28%. There is no general 12% goods schedule under this principal notification.
Apparel, Made-up Textiles and Footwear
The 2025 rationalisation introduced updated value thresholds for specified goods. Articles of apparel under Chapters 61 and 62 of sale value not exceeding ₹2,500 per piece are in the 5% schedule. Specified made-up textile articles under Chapter 63 also use a ₹2,500-per-piece threshold, subject to exclusions. Footwear exceeding ₹2,500 per pair is in the 18% schedule. These value thresholds replace the older ₹1,000 thresholds appearing in the historical source table.
