Hi Ravinder!
The sale of printed books like the Bhagavad Gita is exempt from GST under the GST law.
Details:
-
Printed books (including religious texts like Bhagavad Gita) fall under HSN 4901.
-
As per Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax (Rate) dated 28.06.2017, the supply of printed books is exempt from GST.
So, GST rate = 0% (Exempted).
If the Bhagavad Gita is printed and supplied as a book, no GST is applicable on its sale.
