"If any person takes commercial premises on rent @ 1.00 lac per month from a person who is not registered in GST as it is below threshold limit, will the tenant have to pay GST on reverse charge basis as it is availing service from Unregistered person"
@ CA PRAMOD BANSAL: If it is your query, the answer is YES, as per section 9(4) of GST bill.
AND It applies to all the supplies from unregistered persons to registered person.
Irony of the provision is that: In a reverse charge mechanism, government does not earn anything as tax payer gets credit of tax paid. Thus, in effect, it is a revenue neutral exercise.
