GST Rate on Restaurant Service

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

Recent notifications clarify GST on hotel restaurant services. If a hotel had room tariffs exceeding ₹7,500 per day in the previous financial year, it's considered a 'specified premise'. This typically means an 18% GST rate on restaurant services is mandatory for the current year, unless an opt-out declaration is made. The option to charge 5% GST without Input Tax Credit (ITC) is generally not available in such cases.

27 March 2025 As per the recent Notification No. 08/2025 and Notification No. 05/2025, is a hotel mandatorily required to charge 18% GST on restaurant services if it had any room bookings with a tariff exceeding Rs. 7,500 per day in the previous financial year? Does the hotel have the option to charge 5% GST on restaurant services without ITC, even if it had room tariffs exceeding Rs. 7,500 per day in the previous year?
