Cattle feed will get taxed at GST 5%, for the former duration in which the exemption would get claimed but no move has been initiated by the council because of interpretational problems.

“With the intent to avoid litigations in some of the interpretational issues, the circular also clarifies that no actions should be taken by the department for the past period (viz., sale of ice cream by ice cream parlour, GST on churi, Khandi, and like items used as cattle feed, etc).
