Hello Experts:

I have a question about GST on online education services for adult literacy. Can you please how much is the GST for such a service? I have read about 18% GST applicable for education services. But is there any waiver for adult literacy?

Thanks Nuvo

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the Goods and Services Tax (GST) applicable to online education services, specifically for adult literacy programmes. Currently, there is no explicit exemption for online courses, including those for adult literacy. Therefore, these services are subject to the standard GST rate of 18%, comprising 9% CGST and 9% SGST.

Education services that will be classified under Heading 9992. As of today, online courses are not explicitly exempted from GST. These services are taxable at the rate of 18% ( 9% CGST + 9% SGST).
