Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies GST registration requirements for doctors. A doctor receiving professional charges exceeding the £20 lakh threshold, along with rental income, is generally required to register for GST. While healthcare services are typically exempt, the rental income from a commercial building is taxable. The doctor must register and account for GST on the rental income, while professional income can be declared as exempt.

Yes, you need to get GST registration.

Threshold for GST registration for service providers is 20 Lakh rupees and in your case doctor itself is receiving 30 Lakh as professional fees, which is above threshold and he needs to mandatory obtain GST registration.

Also he needs to pay GST on both professional fees as well as rental income.

Dear Sir,

Health care services are exempt from Gst right., if he gets registered under Gst he needs to pay GST only on the Rental income received from Commercial building right..!!
