Recently a clarification issued by the Finance Ministry reiterated that the supply of service by RWA, unincorporated body or a registered non- profit entity, to its own members by way of reimbursement of charges up to an amount of five thousand rupees per month per member for providing services and goods for the common use of its members in a housing society or a residential complex are exempt from GST. RWAs will have to pay GST on monthly contributions over than Rs. 5000 per member and if the annual turnover of RWA is over Rs. 20 lakhs. So if your monthly maintenance charges/amenities exceed Rs.5000 only you need to pay GST. Otherwise you refuse to pay the illegal maintenance charges over and above Rs.5000 or Annual turnover of society or RWA is more than Rs.20 lacs..Discuss this byt convening AGM anbd refer to Registrar.
