Dear Mr.Devendar,
you are liable to pay GST @ 18% under RCM on rent. Because the rent is for business purpose, you can claim its ITC.
Further, you need to pay the rent to landlord after deducting 10% TDS, as the annual rent is more than 1.80 lakh.

- Rent on commercial property is taxable, but residential property is exempted.

- If the aggregate turnover of goods & services of the landlord all over India under the same PAN is over Rs.20 lacs, registration is mandatory.

- Tenant can take ITC if used for business.

- If landlord is not registered but tenant is registered, GST has to be paid by the tenant under reverse charge mechanism.

- Rate of GST on rent is 18% under heading 9972.
