Chandigarh, June 12

State Deputy Chief Minister Dushyant Chautala today said the Centre had reduced the existing 28 per cent tax on ambulances to 12 per cent.

Dushyant, who also holds the portfolio of the Excise and Taxation Department, gave this information through videoconferencing after attending the GST Council meeting held under the chairmanship of Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman.

The Deputy Chief Minister said the GST Council had accepted all suggestions of a six-member committee of the Group of Ministers, which was constituted to determine the GST on Covid-related items. Haryana had made two suggestions — extending the time limit for the exemption of GST rates on Covid goods and reducing the existing tax on electric crematoriums. — TNS

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
