FAQ :
Manufacturers, packers, and importers can now declare a revised Maximum Retail Price (MRP) on unsold pre-packaged goods due to changes in GST rates.
This is permitted until December 31, 2025, or until the unsold stock is completely cleared, whichever occurs earlier.
The original MRP must remain visible, and the revised price cannot exceed the increase in tax. If taxes are reduced, the revised price should reflect this reduction. Businesses also need to advertise the changes and inform Legal Metrology authorities.
Yes, packaging material or wrappers that were not used before the GST revision can still be used for packing until December 31, 2025, or until the material is exhausted, provided the MRP is corrected by stamping or stickers.
Manufacturers, packers, and importers of pre-packaged commodities are eligible to make these revisions.
