Restaurants are required to pay GST at a concessional rate of 5% on the turnover under Composition Scheme subject to following restrictions
- Turnover not to exceed Rs 1.5 Crores (Rs 1 Crore in case of special category States)
- Should not be engaged in any services other than restaurant (special exception carved out for services like interest and exempt services)
- Restaurant cannot make inter-state outward supply of goods
- Cannot supply any items exempt under GST.
- They cannot supply goods through an e-commerce operator
- Restaurants cannot avail any input tax credit
- They cannot collect taxes from the customer.
- Restaurants opting for the composition scheme must mention the words “composition taxable person, not eligible to collect tax on supplies” on the top of the bill of supply.
Hence, The calculation shall be made at 5% of the total Turnover. i.e. Suppose, if the Turnover of one quarter is INR 2 Lac; Then, 5% i.e. Rs. 10,000 Shall be Paid as GST. (Rs. 5000 CGST and Rs. 5000 SGST)
