What rate should be charged by caterer to club: Depaends upon what service is provided by the caterer to the club. Though not clear from the query, it appears that caterer prepares the food and serves to members. For this caterer charges the club.- Rate is 5% if the caterer is taking ITC credit, 18% if not taking ITC. Clubs provides various services to members. On membership fee 18% will be charged. As the club is providing various services like rooms, membership, restaurant etc.; I suppose club is taking ITC. If club is taking ITC, club should charge members 18%. If the club is taking ITC, it is irrelevant as to whether the caterer is charging 5% or 18%. Whatever the club pays to the caterer as GST, is available as ITC. If the caterer raises invoice directly to members- caterer will charge 5% if not taking ITC, or 18% if taking ITC.
