ACCOMMODATION, FOOD AND BEVERAGE SERVICES
GST has been a new buzz in the market since its rollout on July 01, 2017. Though over two years have been passed since its levy, still, people and industries are ambiguous of its impact on their businesses.
This article is an attempt to throw some light on one of the important sectors of the economy i.e. Hotel and Restaurants.
In the pre-GST regime era, a restaurant food bill attracted both VAT and Service Tax with VAT being levied on food component and Service Tax on the service component. GST has simplified the tax regime by submerging many indirect taxes into one.
Many changes have been made via various notifications for hotel and restaurant services which have been captured below in sequence of their release.
