Kerala Flood Cess

A year after the worst floods in almost a Century, Kerala has become the first state to impose an additional cess. Starting August 1, Kerala will be implementing 1 per cent Flood Cess, apart from the Goods and Services Tax (GST), with the aim to generate funds for rebuilding the state.

Movie tickets, beer and wine prices are to be hiked and a ''flood cess'' implemented in cash-strapped Kerala as the CPI(M)-led LDF government presented its first post-flood budget on Thursday in an effort to mobilise additional resources to rebuild the state.

GST Council, the highest decision making body of the Goods and Services Tax regime, today decided to set up a seven-member group of ministers to suggest on cess demand for Kerala flood rehabilitation.
