adminNew Delhi,May 19,2017: In a pess statement, Ms Suneeta Reddy, M.D Apoll Hospitals Group said :
“We welcome the Union Government and GST Council’s move to exempt healthcare from the Goods & Services Tax.We believe that by doing so the Government has accorded healthcare and education the due importance and impetus that they need to become game-changing agents for transformation of India, its people and the economy. Since healthcare was always on the zero list the impact of this announcement will be neutral. It is well known that the government is taking many steps towards universal health coverage and as such we wait for their position on input taxes with the hope that they are not cost inflationary. We would like to congratulate them for their progressive far-sightedness for this sector. ”
