Exactly! Here's the clear picture regarding service tax on rental income (as per the pre-GST rules):
* **Commercial Property Rent:** If the **annual rent from commercial property exceeds ₹10 lakhs**, service tax is applicable on the entire commercial rent amount.
* **Residential Property Rent:** No service tax is applicable on rent received from **residential properties**, regardless of the amount.
So in your cases:
* For **₹11 lakhs from commercial property + ₹4 lakhs from residential**, service tax applies only on ₹11 lakhs (commercial rent), not on residential.
* For **₹12 lakhs from residential property only**, no service tax is applicable.
Note: This was the rule before GST came into effect from July 2017. After GST, the taxation on renting services has changed and depends on specific categories.
Do you want details about the GST impact on property rent too?
* **Commercial Property Rent:** If the **annual rent from commercial property exceeds ₹10 lakhs**, service tax is applicable on the entire commercial rent amount.
* **Residential Property Rent:** No service tax is applicable on rent received from **residential properties**, regardless of the amount.
So in your cases:
* For **₹11 lakhs from commercial property + ₹4 lakhs from residential**, service tax applies only on ₹11 lakhs (commercial rent), not on residential.
* For **₹12 lakhs from residential property only**, no service tax is applicable.
