suppose the rent is 100000 and rate of tax is 18 %......than the tenant will have to pay GST on 100000 @ 18% (i.e. 18000) to the governement and he should not deduct this amount from the rent which he has to pay to landlord. Tenant will have to pay landlord full 100000.....tenant will get input credit of Rs 18000 which he has paid on reverse charge basis hence question of deducting it from the rent does not arise.....
even if the tenant is a composition dealer then also the position will remain the same.....because sec 9(4) clearly says that if "registered" dealer buy "GOODS or SERVICE or BOTH" from an "unregistered" dealer than he has to pay tax on reverse charge basis......it does not distinguish between regular or composition dealer.
