They categorise that roti is generic and all types of Indian bread cannot be included under it. It has 5% GST. But Parotas will have an 18% GST and people are obviously not impressed.

As per reports in Times of India, the AAR has argued that Parotas have to be heated before consumption. A private food manufacturing company based in Whitefield wanted Paroast to be classified under rotis which is the heading 1905 of GST. They said "rotis are already prepared or completely cooked products, they are ready-to-use food preparations. On the other hand, parotas need to be heated before consumption." The stark gap created between Roti and Parota has fumed some netizens but they are expressing it through humour. Using the latest meme templates, they have made jokes and memes on the decision. Check out the funniest reactions on 18% GST on Parotas.

Some people also seem to be confused with the Parota and Parantha. Parotas are like layered rotis which are common in the Southern states. Parantha which is made with stuffing inside is commonly in North Indian states. But clearly, the distinction does not make sense to many and the displeasure is quite clear.
