Court grants hotel interim stay on GST for eatery services
The Bombay High Court has granted an interim stay in a case challenging the levy of 18% goods and services tax (GST) on restaurant services located within hotels where the room tariff exceeds Rs 7,500 per day.
This follows a petition in the court's Aurangabad bench challenging the validity of the GST rate notification that links the tax on restaurant services to hotel room tariff.
The high court has issued notices to the Centre, the Maharashtra government, GST Council, and other state authorities. The matter is slated to be heard next on November 19.
