If you have sublet some portion and receiving rent and the rent will exceed Rs. 10 Lakh, then you will be required to pay ST. So, from Rs. 10,00,001/- onwards its required to pay ST. Till then even ST registration is also not required. However, it is suggested to get registered under ST once rental income crosses Rs. 9 Lakh.
