BENGALURU: A proposed 18% GST or Goods and Service Tax on tickets to watch performance acts has got venues and artistes stressing out equally.

“It was a shocker to be honest. I was expecting quite the opposite. Instead of offering support, a GST, a “goods” services tax essentially is prohibitive,” says Varun Kainth, a theatre actor.
