What’s inside:
This article shares the good news about reduced prices of dairy products and bottled water in Bihar.
People in Bihar have received some good news recently. The prices of popular products like Amul and Sudha milk, along with Rail Neer, are set to drop by one to ten rupees. This price reduction will take effect from Monday, September 22, making daily essentials a bit more affordable.
Comfed has announced this price cut, explaining that it is possible because of improvements in GST rates. The new prices will help consumers save money on everyday items they regularly buy, which is a welcome change for many households.
For instance, Sudha’s table butter prices will now be lower, with 50 grams costing 31 rupees instead of 32. Similarly, paneer and milk prices will also see reductions. Rail Neer, the bottled water sold at railway stations, will also be available at these new, lower prices from the same date.
This change is part of a broader adjustment in the GST structure, where the number of tax slabs has been simplified. Now, there are only two rates: 5% and 18%, compared to the earlier four slabs. This simplification aims to benefit consumers directly by reducing costs on essential goods.
Experts believe that these price cuts will provide much-needed relief to the public, easing the burden of inflation. With lower prices on dairy products and bottled water, consumers can expect a little more money left in their pockets for other needs.
Summary:
- Prices of dairy products and bottled water in Bihar are reducing.
- New prices will start from September 22.
- GST improvements have enabled the price cuts.
- Sudha products like butter and paneer will be cheaper.
- This change aims to provide relief from inflation for consumers.
