Online prices fall 7-10% after GST rate cut
Following the September 2025 Goods and Services Tax (GST) rate cuts, online retail prices of consumer goods have seen a net correction of 7-10 percent. The median price reduction was 16.4% immediately post-cut, though about 6.3% of that drop has since been reversed due to factors like festive demand and rupee volatility. The impact of GST price cuts could linger beyond one inflation print, and a clearer picture will emerge by the end of calendar year 2025. The survey has been based entirely on Amazon price data.
