GST rationalisation for amusement park admissions could lower ticket prices, stimulate consumer demand, and support investment without input tax credit.

Many smaller and mid-sized operators report limited ability to offset GST liability through ITC. Lower taxation is projected to support facility expansion, revenue growth, new investment, employment and reinvestment in recreational services.
