A business owner is seeking clarification on GST applicability for rent paid on a property recently purchased by their proprietor's wife. The rent is proposed at £100,000 annually, with TDS deducted at 10%. Experts have indicated that GST may not be applicable if the annual rent is below £20 lakhs. However, if the property is residential, Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) under section 9(3) might apply, as per notification no. 5/2022 dated 13th July 2022.
