Our Landlord owns a Commercial Property. Since his turnover is less than 20lakhs he has not taken GST Registration.

We, service receiver is a sec 8 company have the GST registration and use the property as our office.

The Land gives us monthly rental Bill without GST. We pay the bill after deducting the TDS.

Does this transaction attracts GST on reverse charge?
