Like every year, the taxman has given special attention to tobacco products in this year’s Union budget proposals.
In his budget speech, The  Union finance minister Shri Arun Jaitley on Wednesday proposed to hike excise duty on all tobacco products, including bidi etc.. This is the first budget where Jaitley has increased basic excise duty on handmade bidi by 33% and on machine-made by 2.7 times, contrary to three of his previous budgets when the finance minister had left bidi, which is considered small-scale industry, untouched.

While excise on various lengths of cigarettes has been increased by 2.5% to 6%, for paan masala, it has been increased from 6% to 9% and unmanufactured tobacco from 4.2% to 8.3%. For other tobacco products like chewing tobacco, jarda-scented tobacco and gutkha, Jaitley proposed to double the excise from 6% to 12%. For hand-made bidis, the finance minister proposed to hike basic excise duty from Rs21 per 1,000 to Rs28 per 1,000, and for machine-made bidi Jaitley increased the basic excise duty to Rs78 per 1,000 from Rs21 per 1,000.
