The Congress on Saturday took a swipe at the government over its implementation of differential GST rates, saying that after popcorn, it is now the turn of doughnuts to get afflicted by "GSTitis".
Congress general secretary in-charge communications Jairam Ramesh cited a media report on X which stated that Singapore-based chain Mad Over Donuts is facing a Rs 100 crore tax notice for allegedly misclassifying its business and paying five per cent GST, claiming it is a restaurant service, as opposed to paying 18 per cent tax on bakery items.
