Demanding the repeal of Goods and Services Tax (GST) from admission and examination fees, the National Students Union of India (NSUI) on Tuesday termed it "Gloomy/Grotesque Students Tax".

"The imposition of the 18 per cent GST on the admission and examination forms for youth is a way to deny education to those coming from economically weaker and backward sections of the Indian society," the Congress student wing said in a statement.

"GST has also been levied on sports facilities in places like DDA sports complex, which are availed by common people," the NSUI said.
