FAQ :
The Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI) is questioning whether Hajmola should be classified as a candy or an Ayurvedic product for GST purposes.

This case could raise significant questions about how traditional health and wellness products are classified and taxed under the current GST system, potentially impacting many similar products.
