This GST rate hike is breathtakingly irresponsible at a time of mounting economic difficulties for most Indians. The Aam Aadmi will bear the brunt of the burden even as inflation eats into his earnings. Does this government believe it can get away with anything? pic.twitter.com/wFPPfNxlQm

A user, while pointing out that paneer butter masala is a dish relished by vegetarians, wrote now people will have to pay “direct and indirect taxes and GST of more than 35 per cent on one dish at restaurant”, while another wrote, “Wanted to order paneer butter masala. Then just let it be…. Too much confusion”.
