The JCCI President assured to the business world that these matters shall be taken up with the Central Board of Direct Taxes and the GST Council.

He also said that Chamber was not raising the demands regarding restoration of Internet as the Chamber has always stood by the government as far as law, order and security concerns were of prime most importance. |
