As per the new Sales Tax (ST)/ Value Added Tax (VAT) policy, sellers on eBay India will no longer be able to separately add an ST/VAT amount in their listings. Instead, sellers will need to specify an all-inclusive item price while listing items for sale.
This change will go live in the second week of April. It will impact some listings that are currently live on the site and slightly change the steps for creating new listings.
Given below are details of the changes and how they impact listings.
