If you operate a medical store under a proprietorship and receive rental income from a property, GST is generally applicable on that rental income. You should use your existing GST number for the medical store and add the appropriate SAC code (9972) via a non-core amendment. Charge 18% GST on commercial rent. However, renting residential units for residential purposes is exempt. If a residential unit is rented to a GST-registered tenant, they will pay GST under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM).

We are a Registered dealer under GST and run a Medical Store. We were taken a GST number under Proprietorship for Medical Store Business. Now we have a property that will give on Rent, So, in that case, we are liable or not to issue Tax Invoice for Rental Income with the existing number which was allotted for Medical Store Business?

Use the same GSTIN (registration is per PAN per State) and add SAC 9972 by non-core amendment; charge 18% on commercial rent, but letting a residential unit for residence is exempt, and if a residential unit is let to a GST-registered tenant, the tenant pays under RCM, not you.
