A 30-day gas tax holiday in Indiana is being questioned by residents about its potential impact on household costs and infrastructure funding. Governor Mike Braun has ordered a temporary suspension of the state’s 7% sales tax on gasoline, expected to lower prices by roughly 15 to 20 cents per gallon. This equates to modest savings per fill-up depending on vehicle size and fuel usage.
