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.

Manufacturers, packers, and importers of pre-packaged commodities are eligible to make these revisions.
