We are a tour operators. We book hotels on behalf of our clients outside India. The hotel in the other country raises bills on us as tour operators and We in turn raise bills on our clients in India. Shall we be liable for GST on the invoice received from the hotel outside India for booking on behalf of our clients. Kindly guide in view of section 11 (3) of IGST act, 2017.

\nI agree with Sh.Parveen Nair Ji. I add that the tour operator is covered under Section 13(8)(b) of IGST Act as he is also performing Intermediary Services. No doubt about applicability of GST under RCM. In my view, sub-section (5) is not applicable here as suggested by Sh.Ganeshan Kalyani Ji. Other experts may intervene.

\nIn my view it is not a case of section 13(5) of the IGST as it covers admissions to or organisation of events. it is also not the case of 13(4) as the recipient of service in the instant case is tour operator and not the client who stays in hotel. it thus falls under 13(8) of IGST hence taxable .RCM should apply.

\nAccordingly, If I am a tour operator and booking accommodation in hotel for my customer outside the India than in that case one of the conditions mentioned under section 2(11) i.e The place of supply must be in India is not being satisfied and hence we can hold that it shall not be considered as Import of Services and No RCM leviable on such services.
\nKindly guide
