The GST rate on food items such as Kulcha, Pav, Burger base material, and Pizza Bread can vary based on whether they are categorized as essential or non-essential food items under GST. Here's a general guideline:
1. **Kulcha, Pav (bread rolls)**: Generally, plain bread, including kulcha and pav, is exempted from GST if it does not contain chocolate, cocoa, or any other sweetening matter or flavoring. This exemption falls under GST exemption for certain food items.
2. **Burger base material**: Burger buns or bread used as base materials for burgers are typically taxed at the GST rate applicable to bread and bakery products. As of the latest updates, these are taxed at 5% GST.
3. **Pizza Bread**: Pizza bread, which is typically plain bread used as a base for pizzas, falls under the same category as other bread products. Therefore, it is also taxed at 5% GST.
It's essential to note that specific variations or preparations of these items, such as those containing chocolate, sweeteners, or other flavorings, may attract different GST rates or exemptions. Always check the latest GST rates and exemptions applicable to ensure compliance with GST regulations.
