28% GST on online gaming, casinos etc: This slab is mostly reserved for sin goods. Seeing a lot of tweets & discussion here. A govt's top priority apart from raising revenues to run the country is also to disincentivise such addictions as far as possible. You can't let the majority of the young generation be hoodwinked into believing that they can have a profitable and sustainable lifestyle playing online games, rummy poker etc. (WHO even lists gaming addiction as mental illness)
During ASP stint in rural area, have firsthand witnessed families being shattered, careers being broken & lives being devastated due to offline & online gambling.
Online gaming can surely be a good form of occasional entertainment but everyone knows how fast it latches on to the person as an addiction. Hence it becomes the moral responsibility of the govt to control such vices in society. Proftability of such platforms comes far far below on the priority scale compared to the lives of millions of youngsters and citizens which can easily get destroyed. Anyway, many who get involved deeply just have to remember The House Edge mantra - The casino always wins. Have fun but stay safe!
