Tax Talk: The Popcorn Perspective 🍿 Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman recently clarified a "popping" tax matter that’s sure to catch the attention of food entrepreneurs and popcorn lovers alike: not all popcorns are taxed equally! Here's the breakdown: 👉 Caramel Popcorn When popcorn is mixed with sugar, it transforms into a sweet treat, stepping away from being a "Namkeen." *Tax rate: 18% 👉 Salted & Spiced Popcorn Retains its status as a "Namkeen." Tax rate: *5% if sold loose *12% if pre-packaged and labeled This nuanced classification highlights the importance of understanding GST implications based on product ingredients and packaging. It’s a reminder that small details in product formulation can have significant tax consequences for businesses. #Taxation #GST #BusinessInsights #FoodIndustry
