Quick Summary

This discussion explores GST applicability on services provided by Dharamshalas, specifically when renting out premises for events like marriages. While renting precincts of a religious place for general public use may be GST-exempt, the consensus suggests Dharamshalas operating for profit are generally subject to GST. An 18% GST rate is mentioned, with a potential exemption if annual gross rent is below £20 lakh.

23 May 2023 As per GST Law 2017, there is no GST payable on Services by a person by way of renting of precincts of a religious place meant for general public. So the rate of GST payable on Services by a person by way of renting of precincts of a religious place meant for general public is nil rate.

23 May 2023 Dharamshala is not a religious place, as person gives it on rent for the purpose of earning some profit and not for charity or spirituality.

I need to know whether any exemptions available to such Premises.
