You need to examine whether your services are naturally bundled (i.e., commercial provided by others in the same manner as you are providing). If yes, your services may not be taxable, provided you charge only one amount i.e., towards the rent.
If your services are not naturally bundled, then the highest rate applicable to any of the service would be leviable. Thus, in such situation, if you are charging only one amount then the entire amount would be liable to 14.5%. If you are charging separate amounts then the levy could be separate.
