Are you ready for the next round of GST changes? India's GST Council is set to meet on October 7, but this time reports suggest consumers should not expect another major overhaul of tax rates. Instead, the focus is expected to shift towards improving how the system works for businesses and taxpayers. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has said the meeting will focus on process reforms under what the government calls GST 2.0.
