We must delink crude oil price rise from GST: Finance Secy
Talking about solution for rising crude oil prices, Finance Secretary Hasmukh Adhia has said, "We must delink crude oil price increase from GST...(it) isn't necessarily the solution to that." He further said that bringing petrol and diesel under GST won't reduce prices if the tax rates are kept neutral and the central and state governments don't sacrifice revenues.
