<h1>GST Council to Decide on Applying GST to Petroleum Products like Petrol, Diesel, and Natural Gas Based on Recommendations.</h1> The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council is tasked with determining when GST will be applied to petroleum products such as crude oil, diesel, petrol, natural gas, and aviation turbine fuel. Although these products are constitutionally included under GST, their inclusion requires the Council's recommendation. The Council comprises representatives from all States and Union Territories with legislatures. Any decision on levying GST on these products must be based on the Council's recommendations. This information was provided by the Union Minister for Petroleum and Natural Gas in a written response to the Rajya Sabha.
