GST rate for room rate ₹ 1000 to 2500 is 12%. In the service apartments like 2 bhk apartment we provide at rate ₹ 1500 per day which ₹ 750 per room . Does GST would be applicable for it ?
Some time we also provide 2 bhk for ₹ 2000 per day which is ₹ 1000 per room which is under GST.
Please clarify.

Sir,
Do you rent the two rooms to different individual? in such a case there will be no GST since the rent collected from two different individuals is less than ₹ 1000/-. However if you rent it out to a family then you have to pay gst since the rent charged is ₹ 1000/-. This is true in the case of rent is on daily basis. If the rent is charged on monthly basis for a family then gst is exempted since the service provided is renting residential premises which is not chargeable to gst.
