01 February 2026 A girls’ hostel / PG with ₹70–80 lakh turnover MUST take GST registration. Hostel accommodation is taxable @12%, even if used for residence. Food and laundry are best treated as part of a composite supply to simplify compliance. GST implications apply whether the building is owned or rented, with RCM applicable on rented residential property. Proper structuring ensures full ITC and minimum disputes.
