This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
Composition taxpayers are exempt from GST under RCM on rent paid for commercial property to unregistered landlords. The GST Council clarified that Notification No. 09/2024 does not apply to composition dealers, with past transactions regularized on an as is where is basis.

16 January 2025 Sir,
A registered composition scheme dealer rent paid to landlord un registered for commercial property purpose RCM tax compulsory or exempt from 10-10-24 for composition scheme dealer





16 January 2025 Yes, exempted.

The GST Council, in its 55th meeting held on December 21, 2024, introduced a crucial clarification regarding the applicability of the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) to taxpayers under the composition levy scheme. This measure exempts composition taxpayers from the RCM obligations imposed under Notification No. 09/2024-Central Tax (Rate), providing much-needed relief and simplicity.

Notification No. 09/2024-Central Tax (Rate), effective October 10, 2024, brought renting of commercial property by unregistered persons to registered persons under the RCM ambit. This posed compliance challenges for composition taxpayers, who are small-scale businesses or professionals with limited resources. Recognizing these difficulties, the GST Council has now excluded composition taxpayers from these RCM provisions.

Taxpayers registered under the composition levy scheme are now excluded from the RCM obligations for renting commercial or immovable properties.

Transactions from October 10, 2024 (effective date of Notification No. 09/2024), to the date of issuance of the revised notification will be regularized on an “as-is-where-is” basis. This ensures no penalties for non-compliance during the interim period.
