GST rate on cab services is 5%. Although, service provider can opt to pay GST at rate of 12% and take benefit of availing full input tax credit.
While renting taxi services or motor cabs, the service recipient shall bear the fuel cost. For the availing the taxi services or motor cabs, GST shall apply at the rate of 18%.
