The GST regime classifies garments based on their retail sale price, and whether they are branded or unbranded, finished or unfinished. Clothing items are taxed to balance affordability for consumers and revenue for the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we focus on the latest GST rates for FY 2025-26 which will be applicable from 22nd September 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"GST_Rates_on_Clothes_until_21st_September_2025\"><\/span>GST Rates on Clothes until 21st September 2025<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>GST on clothes is applied based on the retail price of the garment. As of FY 2025-26 until 21st September, the key rates are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>5% GST: <\/strong>On garments and apparels priced up to INR 1,000 per piece.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>12% GST:<\/strong> On garments priced above INR 1,000 per piece.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These rates apply to both branded and unbranded clothing. The distinction helps ensure essential and affordable wear is taxed at a lower rate, while premium apparel attracts a higher rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"GST_Rates_Based_on_Value_of_Clothing_wef_22nd_September_2025\"><\/span>GST Rates Based on Value of Clothing w.e.f. 22nd September 2025<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The GST structure for clothing is primarily value-based.
