The court has determined that these beverages will now fall under the lower 12% GST slab instead of the previously higher 28% slab. This decision is expected to benefit manufacturers in the country, such as X\u2019SS Beverage, by providing them with a more favorable tax rate. The classification of these drinks is now based on their essential fruit juice content rather than their carbonation levels. This ruling is likely to have a positive impact on the pricing and sales of fruit pulp and juice-based carbonated drinks, making them more affordable for consumers. The move is also expected to encourage the growth of the beverage industry in India. Manufacturers and consumers alike are welcoming this decision, as it will lead to cost savings and increased consumption of these products. The ruling by the Gauhati High Court is seen as a progressive step towards promoting the production and sale of healthier beverage options in the country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent development, the Gauhati High Court has made a significant ruling regarding the GST slab for fruit pulp and juice-based carbonated drinks in India.
