Decrease, but only on food and medicine

Decreasing VAT rates on essential items like food and medicine aligns with their goal of providing relief to citizens and ensuring their well-being. This is evident in their support for the National Food Security Act, which aimed to provide subsidized food grains to the poor.

Increase, but only on luxury purchases

Increase, to help sustain the economy
