Work out the GST on any room tariff in seconds, using India's current slabs (effective 22 September 2025).
Use the declared tariff, not the discounted price.
Rates reflect the GST structure effective 22 September 2025: rooms up to ₹7,500 a night at 5% without input tax credit (including rooms under ₹1,000 — that exemption ended in July 2022), and above ₹7,500 at 18% with ITC. The slab follows the rate actually charged per room per night. This calculator is a guide, not tax advice — confirm the current rate and your ITC eligibility with your accountant.
GST on hotel accommodation is decided by the rate charged per room per night. As of 22 September 2025, rooms up to ₹7,500 a night attract 5% (with no input tax credit) and rooms above ₹7,500 attract 18% (with input tax credit). The earlier 12% slab for mid-range rooms was removed in this revision — a meaningful saving for budget and mid-segment properties. Budget rooms under ₹1,000 are not exempt: that exemption was withdrawn in July 2022, so they are taxed at 5% too.
The slab follows the amount actually charged, not the printed tariff. So if your published tariff is above ₹7,500 and a discount brings the room below ₹7,500 a night, the 5% slab applies to that booking.

Since 22 September 2025: rooms up to ₹7,500 per night are taxed at 5% (without input tax credit) and rooms above ₹7,500 at 18% (with input tax credit). The earlier 12% slab was removed. Rooms under ₹1,000 are not exempt — that exemption was withdrawn on 18 July 2022, so they are also taxed at 5%.
On the value actually charged per room per night. The old rule based on the declared (published) tariff was dropped, so if a discount brings the room below ₹7,500 a night, the 5% slab applies. Keep your invoices consistent with what the guest actually paid, and check edge cases with your accountant.
The per-night tariff for a single room decides the GST slab. The rate is then applied to the full room charge (tariff × rooms × nights).
ITC is available only on rooms taxed at 18% (tariff above ₹7,500). At the 5% slab, no input tax credit is available. Confirm your eligibility with your accountant.
