Field Insights from Jubilee Hills!

We are happy to share that our interns at Billion Connect Pvt. Ltd. successfully conducted a “Muslim Sentiment Survey” across 41 minority-dominant polling stations of the Jubilee Hills Assembly Constituency between 10–21 October 2025.

📊 Over 6,865 voters were personally interviewed — covering 22% of the total electorate — using a mixed-method approach that combined random sampling, structured questionnaires, booth-specific flash surveys, micro-meets, and one-on-one interactions.
This survey was designed to capture micro-level insights into voter attitudes, preferences, and booth-wise dynamics, helping us understand the evolving political and social sentiments on the ground.
A big thank you to our dedicated interns, field coordinators, and data team for completing this large-scale exercise with sincerity and precision.

Next-Gen GST Reform?

The government’s “Diwali Gift” through GST reforms is a mix of populist relief and structural recalibration. On the face of it, households, farmers, students, and patients stand to benefit:

1. Households save on essentials – hair oil, toothpaste, butter, diapers, utensils – all slashed to 5%.
2. Farmers gain from cheaper tractors, tyres, irrigation systems, and agri-machinery – easing input costs and improving rural productivity.
3. Healthcare becomes lighter on the pocket with insurance, oxygen, diagnostic kits, and spectacles moving to 0–5%.
4. Education support is visible in exemptions for maps, notebooks, and crayons – a symbolic investment in human capital.
5. Industry & consumption may revive as GST on vehicles, electronics, and appliances rationalises from 28% to 18%.

Equally important are process reforms: automatic registration, faster refunds, and reduced compliance that signal a tilt towards ease of doing business.

But here’s the critical caveat:
While goods are becoming cheaper, GST on services has quietly moved upward. This raises costs in sectors like hospitality, digital services, professional consultancy, and education services. For the middle class and businesses, the pinch will still be felt in bills, fees, and subscriptions.

In short, the reform delivers consumption relief and sectoral stimulus, but it also bets on services to compensate for revenue shortfalls. The larger question: can this dual approach sustain fiscal balance without stoking inflationary pressure in services?
