More than one million HDB households across Singapore are set to receive utility rebates in October under the GST Voucher (GSTV) scheme, providing financial relief on essential household expenses. The rebates will be credited to residents' accounts and cover both U-Save rebates, which assist with utility costs, and Conservancy & Handling charges (S&CC) rebates. The initiative forms part of Singapore's permanent GST Voucher scheme, designed to help lower and middle-income households manage the impact of the Goods and Services Tax. The automatic crediting of rebates removes the need for residents to apply separately, streamlining the benefit distribution process. This ongoing support underscores the government's commitment to assisting HDB households with the cost of living in Singapore's residential estates.
