09 July 2024 Sure, let's address each case regarding GST registration and the applicable rates:

### Case 1: Hostel Premises rented to Government for Student Residence

**Scenario:**
- Mr. A has rented out his hostel premises to the government for student residence.
- Government pays Rs. 100 per day per student.
- Number of students: 100
- Calculation: Rs. 100 per day * 365 days * 100 students = Rs. 36,50,000 per annum

**GST Registration:**
- Mr. A's total turnover from this rental exceeds Rs. 20 lakhs annually, which exceeds the GST registration threshold.
- Therefore, Mr. A needs to register under GST.

**GST Rate:**
- Renting of residential premises including hostels is considered a taxable supply under GST.
- GST rate applicable for renting of residential premises (including hostels) is **18%** (9% CGST + 9% SGST/UTGST).

**Conclusion for Case 1:**
- Mr. A needs to register under GST due to his rental income exceeding Rs. 20 lakhs annually.
- GST rate applicable on the rental income received from the government for student residence in the hostel premises is **18%**.

### Case 2: Hostel Premises rented directly to Students

**Scenario:**
- Mr. A rents out his hostel premises directly to students for residence.
- Students pay Rs. 100 per day per student.
- Number of students: 100
- Calculation: Rs. 100 per day * 365 days * 100 students = Rs. 36,50,000 per annum

**GST Registration:**
- Similar to Case 1, Mr. A's total turnover from rental exceeds Rs. 20 lakhs annually.
- Therefore, Mr. A needs to register under GST.

**GST Rate:**
- Renting of residential premises (including hostels) to individuals (students, in this case) is also taxable under GST.
- The applicable GST rate for renting residential premises (including hostels) to individuals is **18%** (9% CGST + 9% SGST/UTGST).

**Conclusion for Case 2:**
- Mr. A needs to register under GST due to his rental income from students exceeding Rs. 20 lakhs annually.
- GST rate applicable on the rental income received directly from students for hostel accommodation is **18%**.

### Summary:
In both cases, since Mr. A's annual rental income exceeds the threshold of Rs. 20 lakhs, he is required to register under GST. The applicable GST rate for renting out hostel premises, whether to the government (Case 1) or directly to students (Case 2), is **18%** (9% CGST + 9% SGST/UTGST). It's important for Mr. A to comply with GST regulations, including registration, filing of returns, and payment of GST on time once registered.
