As per Section 9(4) of the CGST Act, 2017, and Notification No. 13/2017 - Central Tax (Rate), the recipient (registered person) is liable to pay GST under RCM on the security services received from the unregistered supplier.  RCM provisions are applicable on this transaction.

Yes, the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) provisions would be applicable in this case.

As per GST regulations, if a registered person receives services from an unregistered supplier, the recipient is required to pay GST under RCM. In this scenario: -

 The recipient (registered person) is required to pay GST on the security services received from the unregistered supplier (Company). -

The recipient should report this transaction in their GST returns and pay GST on the value of services received. 

However, please note that there are some exceptions and additional considerations: -

 If the security services are received from an unregistered supplier whose aggregate turnover is less than ₹20 lakhs (₹10 lakhs in special category states), RCM may not apply. -

 If the services are received from an unregistered supplier located outside India, the recipient may need to comply with other GST provisions, such as the "reverse charge" mechanism.
