Question

why does not the GST tax seem to be on petroleum and alcohol?????? pls give me a relevant answer.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Alcohol was not brought under the purview of GST regime primarily due to two reasons: To ensure that the State Governments continue to have a strong inflow of revenue (other than what they get from GST). It's estimated that taxes on liquor and beer fetch the state governments nearly INR 90,000 crores annually.
