A tax free policy on condom, bangles and vermillion is been implemented by the government through new GST plans but on the other hand sanitary  goods (sanitary napkins, sanitary pads, clinical diapers and tampons) will be receiving a 12 percent of tax. “Good and simple tax” were the words from the PM a few days back but now it proved to be “gigantic tax on simple things”. GST was mentioned as a plan for “sizable luxury –greater the tax) but the strategy seems irrelevant in this case.
