For composite scheme

Sir, our company (Ltd.) has been receiving commercial rental income in Tamilnadu collecting GST 18% from the tenants (with no other business income as on date), now we wish to start a small hotel in Andhra Pradesh. Can we opt for composite scheme as our turnover may not cross 30 lakhs this year? Pls advice.....

Composition scheme is  applicable only  to  Restaurant  service  ( Not serving  Alcohol ) 

A taxpayer whose turnover is below Rs 1.5 crore* can opt for Composition Scheme. In case of North-Eastern states and Himachal Pradesh, the limit is now Rs 75* lakh. Turnover of all businesses registered with the same PAN should be taken into consideration to calculate turnover. So, Yes you may opt for composition scheme.
No You cannot opt for composite secheme
as to your query the rental income is cover under services, & composit dealer cannot provide service other then restaurant Business

Sir, we want to start a small restaurant business. under composite scheme.    (we need a clarification if the rental income can still be 18% gst service)

You may show both businesses in different names in order to opt scheme.

NO mahesh, you cannot have any other source of income apart that of Hotel Income.

Thank you Ruchika ji. Please help me in what would be the GST % for a small scale restuarant when not under composite scheme.

Can we take Input Tax Credit of our purchases too.

All  stand  alone Restaurant  not  opting  composition scheme  will have to pay 5 %  GST  with  no Input  Tax Credit . plase conform with  others also .

It will be 18% i.e 9% CGST and 9% SGST.

No input tax credit available.

As per above query and Discussions....

I agreed to Mr. Pankaj Rawat's view...

 

As per my view.,

The Querist can't opt composition scheme for his Restuarent busines based on his Rental Income

YES ITS 5% GST, WITH NO INPUT CREDIT

GST rate on restaurants to 12 per cent with input tax credit or at 5 per cent without input tax credit. 
No you cannot take input in resutrant services
