Rs100 in Goa & Rs305 in Karnataka, excise duty difference defeats spirit of '1 nation, 1 tax'
Posted
Alcohol prices in India vary significantly across states due to differing excise duties and taxes, with Goa having the lowest levies. This disparity undermines the 'one nation, one tax' principle, encouraging bootlegging and revenue loss for high-tax states. Industry bodies advocate for tax rationalization to promote sustainable revenue growth and discourage excessive consumption, but finance ministers are hesitant to relinquish taxation powers.
