Budget 2022 will reveal the timeline for the planned goods and services tax (GST) hike, though experts disagreed on when it will take place and whether the increase from 7 per cent to 9 per cent will be done in one go or in two stages.
Some experts said it could come as early as July while others suggested it would come in mid-2023.
