  • Contents

Association of Private Airport Operators has requested the Government to bring aviation fuel under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) and to double the duty free allowances for passengers coming from abroad. In the model of the GST which has been proposed by the Empowered Committee of State Finance Ministers, it has not been possible to bring aviation turbine fuel under the purview of the GST. Also, it has not been found feasible to accede to the request to double the duty free allowances for passengers coming from abroad.

This information was given by the Minister of State for Finance, Shri S.S. Palanimanickam in written reply to a question raised in Rajya Sabha today.
