Who will be liable to Pay GST Demand?

06 April 2022 Hospital paid rent as per agreement. It's the fault of landlord not registered under GST and not issuing tax invoice.
Hence landlord is liable to pay GST demand.

07 April 2022 But the landlord's CA said it's an indirect tax final burden is on the tenant and if the landlord did not collect GST from the tenant, a landlord can recover GST.

07 April 2022 Check rental agreement terms.

07 April 2022 On the rental agreement, it's not specified tax included or not. Hospital paid rent after the deduction of TDS.

07 April 2022 Let the owner of the building get GST registered and issue tax invoice for the agreed amount, then the hospital can make payment of GST to the owner and take credit if it is eligible. The owner will proceed to file the GSTR 1 and 3B, making GST payment to the government.

07 April 2022 So hospital not liable to pay GST.

08 April 2022 In indirect taxation the tax burden can be passed on the recipient but it is not necessary that it has to be passed on.
