Hostels and PG accommodation services attract @ 12% GST The Karnataka Authority for Advance Rulings (AAR) ruled that hostel and paying guest (PG) accommodations do not qualify as residential dwellings and are thus subject to a 12% Goods and Services Tax (GST).

However, the AAR determined that these services resemble guest houses or lodges, not permanent residences, and are therefore taxable. Additionally, the applicant must pay GST under the reverse charge mechanism for rental payments to landlords. A similar ruling was issued by the AAR in Uttar Pradesh, impacting the hostel industry, particularly in educational hubs.
