Legal implications on owner whose address is used for GST registration

Dear sir / madam,

Please share your opinion about Legal Implications on the Owner whose address has been used by his tenant for his (tenant's) GST registration, esp. in case of failure to clear GST liability or any fraudulent measures applied by the tenant while filing GST Returns.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses the legal implications for property owners when their address is used by a tenant for GST registration. While the owner generally isn't liable for the tenant's GST dues, it's advisable to obtain a stamped declaration from the tenant. This declaration should confirm their compliance with GST laws and that their business activities are legitimate, absolving the owner of responsibility for any non-compliance issues.

There is no legal liabilty on the owner if the tenant is not able to clear his Gst liabilty. However, you can take a declaration from the tenant regarding the same on a Stamp pape that he is complying with all the provisions of the Gst act and the activities conducted in the premises are bonafide and in case any liabilty arises on the Owner due to non compliance of the law the same is need to paid by tenant.
Thanks for your opinion and prompt reply.
It's my pleasure if you have any problem feel free to contact
