Rule Changes

Said on October 22, 2026 that reforms not needing law amendments would start November 1, 2026; that tranche took effect on schedule

The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs told its field officers on October 30 to stop making GST arrests immediately, and to hold back show-cause notices where the tax at stake is under ₹10,000. The directions are an interim measure. Parliament still has to amend the GST law, which the government targets for April 1, 2027.
