GST a disruptive change and tribute to India's democracy: President Pranab Mukherjee

Calling the GST a "disruptive change", President Pranab Mukherjee tonight said the ambitious central tax is a "tribute" to the maturity and wisdom of India's democracy, as he recalled steps taken during his own tenure as Finance Minister on this key reform measure. He also said the GST Council should continuously review the implementation and suggest suitable improvements to the new indirect taxation regime.
