Tax on liquor served in restaurent.

Replies (10)

it will be 18 %

but in liquor there is no GST ?
It was on restaurant supplying food or drinks with having license to serve liquor. For liquor, tax rate would be same, which is levied currently.
can i get any article on above ?

Article on above, please specify -

thanks a lot Nisha ji.. so if i am not wrong acc to GST provision there would be no service charge on liquor

Taxes on Liquor is out of purview of GST.

But Service Charge charged by Restaurants are an extra charge made for serving customers in a restaurant as tip which is coming under the definition of Services under GST.

Thanks

Therefore no GST on liquors served in restaurent like earlier it was 6% service tax. And also since delhi government has made service charge as voluntary. Apart from Vat no other tax on setving liquor.
