e not alienated from your business of renting. Also a substantial component of of furtherance of business which is attached with consideration albeit without any profit.

I do agréé with Rajgopalanji that électricity and Walter charges are GST exempt items one can not charge GST on that. As electric ans water bills are only reimbursed by tenant thèse are not services provided by thé supplier.
So a simple commercial Bill should be issued. Value of thèse bills will not form part of your taxable turnover.
