While GST 1.0 taxed only 54 consumption categories at this rate, GST 2.0 has nearly tripled the count to 149 categories, significantly widening the range of affordable goods.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">The report also underscored that by narrowing price gaps across markets, GST 2.0 discourages smuggling and curbs the proliferation of counterfeit goods, further benefiting consumers and legitimate businesses alike.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Aparna Deb\" title=\"Aparna Deb\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/aparna-deb-20948.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Aparna Deb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aparna Deb is a Subeditor and writes for the business vertical of News18.com.
