Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the distinction between 'purified water' and 'treated water', noting that purified water is generally for direct consumption or specific uses, while treated water can be for industrial purposes. It explores the GST implications of supplying treated water to Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs), considering its varied uses and the potential taxability based on the type of treatment and HSN codes.

Purified is for household consumption or for special purpose like beverages, distilled water. 

Treated water could be for industrial use like demineralising them. 

There is a difference. How ever water supplied to RWA has multiple purposes including gardening, washing, cleaning, swimming pool and for the use of apartment etc. And store in common water ground tank.

the tenants pay based on per square feet, and attracts 0 tax rate.

Hsn2201, 

Water [other than aerated, mineral, purified, distilled, medicinal, ionic, battery, de-mineralized and water sold in sealed container] is exempt. Purified water is not exempt.. Whether treated water would be exempt. 

The treated water needs to be defined as what kind of treatment. I’m not an experienced in this industry
