Ladakh’s economy is poised for growth following recent GST reforms lowering taxes on tourism, handicrafts, agriculture, and dairy products. The reduced rates enhance eco-tourism affordability, boost local artisans producing Pashmina wool and Namda rugs, and support apricot farming and dairy industries. Women entrepreneurs in agro-processing and sea buckthorn cultivation also benefit, fostering sustainable development and cultural preservation in this unique Himalayan region.
