This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies whether Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) applies to GST-registered businesses paying rent for commercial property, even if they supply exempt goods like agricultural products. RCM is applicable if the landlord is an unregistered person providing the property to a registered business, as per Notification No. 09/2024-Integrated Tax (Rate). If the landlord charges GST under the forward charge, RCM does not apply.
