GST on Rent Commercial Unit

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If your landlord isn't issuing a GST invoice for your commercial rent, you might be able to pay the GST yourself under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM). This is because registered suppliers are legally obligated to issue tax invoices, and failure to do so can result in penalties. You can consider the landlord as unregistered for GST purposes in this scenario, pay the GST via RCM, and claim the Input Tax Credit (ITC).

12 March 2025 A registered person must be issue tax invoice. If fails to issue a tax invoice, they may be liable to a penalty of ₹10,000 or the tax due, whichever is higher As per Section 122 of the CGST Act.

The buyer or service receiver can raise the complaint to GST authority or don't deal any business activity against the seller/service provider who are not willing to issue tax invoice.

Some business dealing with kind of issues hence my opinion on this, The penalty and interest lying with service provider side only hence you have treat the service provider is a unregistered person and you can pay GST under RCM ( Rent service comes under RCM Purview ) and avail ITC.
