Subject — Interest is a service or a Good

For any service, if the provider is trying to charge the “Late Payment Fee”, and on top of that late payment fee they are trying to levy 18% GST. Then my question is under Policy clarification that this “Late Payment Fee” is a service or Goods(Example Apartment Maintenance Services provided by builder not AOA / RWA)?

I see this neither as a service nor a Goods.

Quick Summary
Late payment interest or fee charged on delayed payment is treated as part of the original supply under GST. It is considered a service, not goods. The same GST rate and SAC/HSN code applicable to the main service will apply to the late payment charges as well.

This is Service...
This is not a goods...
