Tamil Nadu Government has reduced the VAT (Value Added Tax) on cell-phones during the presentation of the budget.

Prevailing VAT was 14.5%. This has now been reduced to 5%. 9.5% additional tax has been removed in a sensational step.

This measure has paved the way for cell phone prices to come down in Tamil Nadu.  For example, a cell-phone costing Rs. 10000/- will reduce by Rs. 1000/-.

This news has gladdened the hearts of middle-class and the poor community. Naturally, cell-phone sellers are also equally delighted!
