RCM on rent of house property

Recently GST was applied on taking a house on rent if the tenant is registered under GST.

Now i am registered under GST because i run a proprietorship firm. I am tenant and paying rent on my house but not availing any rent expense or income tax benefit of this rent in my firm.

Now do i have to deposit GST under RCM ... ?

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether a GST-registered individual, who is a tenant of a house property, is liable to pay GST under Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM). The consensus is that if you are registered under GST, you are likely liable to pay RCM on rent, regardless of whether the property is used for business or personal purposes. While one could argue against liability if it's not for business, this would likely require litigation.

RCM IS ONLY APPLICABLE ON LICENSE/ PROFESSIONAL FEES AND LEGAL/ TRANSPORT/ SECURITY/

RCM is applicable in case landlord is unregistered sir

Yes. you are liable since nowhere purpose is mentioned in the notification . one can argue as not liable as it's not for business. but you have to litigate.
