Centre Opposes Court Directive to Cut GST on Air Purifiers, Calls It Unconstitutional
The Centre told the Delhi High Court that courts cannot interfere with GST decisions. It opposed a PIL seeking to lower the GST on air purifiers from 18% to 5%, by classifying them as medical devices. The PIL claims this would help amid Delhi's severe air pollution. The court will hear the case on January 9, 2026.
