Textiles products, especially those made from cotton yarn and fabric, are likely to cost more with the government setting a higher rate for them under the GST to be rolled out from July 1.

A section of the industry believes differential rates for cotton and synthetic fibre under the new indirect tax regime will lead to interpretational issues.

The Goods and Services Tax (GST) Council on Saturday fixed 5 per cent rate on cotton fibre, yarn and fabric, which attract zero duty at present.
