It confirms that the tenant, a registered LLP, is not required to pay GST under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM). The rent is to be paid without GST, as the landlord is responsible for GST under the forward charge mechanism, even if their registration is suspended.

As per GST Act provides that GST on commercial property rent is to be paid by the registered service provider( landlord). No (RCM) applicable for GST on commercial property rent. However, it's important to note that this absence of RCM doesn't exemption for commercial rent under GST via forward charge mechanism (FCM).
