How GST will work

The Morning Standard

September 05, 2025

FROM next year, watching Indian Premier League games from Stadia around the country is going to get more expensive after the centre came out with a more streamlined GST 2.0 on Wednesday night. A look..

How much was I paying for my ticket till now and what's the expected increase?

For the last few years, IPL match tickets have attracted a GST rate of 28%. So, if a ticket cost ₹1000 excluding taxes, the final cost was ₹1280. Now, the same ticket is set to cost ₹1400 as IPL tickets are going to come under luxury goods (40% tax).

Does the same apply to watching India games?
