Yoga Services: Tax exemption and GST confusion

Rules 3298 views 4 replies

I am a Yoga teacher and during lockdown started Yoga courses Online. Total collection from Yoga courses and other sources is almost crossed 40 lakhs. 

I wanted to know are yoga services taxable or totally exempted?

Is GST required for it? If yes, what is maximum turnover? 

IIt would be great if any other suggestions I can get for my situation. 

Thanks
