He further highlighted that Introduction of GST shall create a common market with Nagpur as its centre, like Brussels is for the EU.
Post GST, he said that Pricing for manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers will be lowest if they centralize warehousing in Nagpur. Hence GST may change the future of Nagpur by making it a lowest cost-to-end-user destination because of its central location.
Goel further explained about wealth creation and suggested the mantra for wealth creation. He said that Real estate is sure shot route to wealth. He stressed that Real Estate is called “Real” because it is the only form of wealth that cannot vanish, crash, or be stolen and said that it is the only option to genuinely defeat inflation and grow one’s net worth.
