Stays at five-star hotels could also get costlier after GST rollout

Stays at five-star hotels could also get costlier. The GST rate of 18 per cent will apply on hotel rooms with tariff ranging between Rs. 2,500 and Rs. 7,500. The highest tax rate of 28 per cent is assigned to tariffs of Rs. 7,500 and above.

Currently, domestic hospitality industry pays tax in the range of 18-25 per cent, which includes luxury tax and service tax. Hotels and lodges that charge Rs. 1,000 a day or less are exempted from the GST, while those charging from Rs. 1,000 to Rs. 2,500 will be taxed at 12 per cent.
