GST Council Updates
Most plastics in primary forms and a wide variety of articles made from plastics generally attract an 18% GST rate. This includes polymers, plastic sheets, films, pipes, tubes, fittings, floor/wall coverings, and many finished plastic goods. However, there are exceptions. Waste, parings, and scrap of plastics are taxed at a lower rate of 5%. Specific plastic articles may also have different rates based on their nature or essentiality. For example, past changes have included adjustments for certain types of plastic bags or other articles. Publicly available summaries of recent GST Council meetings (late 2024/early 2025) don’t indicate widespread changes across the entire chapter, but specific item rates should be verified with official sources.
