GSTRERA & Property Act

The AAR has ruled that the "renting of a residential property to the government for a backward class girls' hostel is exempt from GST." The ruling clarifies that since the government is using the property for a welfare purpose related to "public health and education," the service is exempt from GST. This decision provides significant relief to property owners who rent their properties to the government for social welfare purposes.
