The GST Council meeting is likely to be rescheduled to October 7, sources say, due to a scheduling conflict with the BRICS summit. NDTV reports that preparations for the council proceed with planned GST official meetings on October 5 and 6.

According to an official communication cited by NDTV, the preparatory meetings include an officers’ meeting on October 5 from 3 pm onwards and another on October 6 from 11 am onwards. The reporting frames the change as linked to the BRICS summit timing, implying that attendees and officials may be occupied elsewhere during the original window.

While NDTV highlights the rescheduling likelihood and the specific dates for internal GST preparations, the details on the original meeting date and the final confirmation of the October 7 plan are not provided in the supplied text. The focus remains on administrative coordination around the summit clash and the continuation of GST preparatory work.
