PM Narendra Modi cited example of a shirt's pricing before 2014 and under GST to explain the positive effects of GST reforms on taxpayers' pockets. "Before 2014, a ₹1,000 shirt would attract ₹170 tax. In 2014 when GST was introduced, the tax reduced from ₹170 to ₹50," PM Modi said. "With GST 2.0, GST dropped to just ₹35," he added.
