Kindly advise whether a religious trust or society is exempted for registration under GST as it accepts donations and render spiritual services. If such societies or Trust raises fund through advertisements publishing in their spiritual magazines, whether they have to levy GST on advertisement fee charged.

Commercial advertisement in magazines is not a spiritual activity not exempt from GST. So GST registration required and GST has to be levied on advertisement charge.
