Issues related to GST on monthly subscription/contribution charged by a Residential Welfare Association from its members.

GST exemption ceiling on RWA maintenance dictates taxability and registration when turnover thresholds are exceeded.

Supply of maintenance or subscription services by a Residential Welfare Association to its members is exempt from GST where charges are reimbursement or contribution for common goods and services and do not exceed the prescribed monthly ceiling per member. If the RWA's aggregate annual turnover exceeds the registration threshold, charges above the monthly ceiling render the entire amount taxable; if turnover is below the threshold, registration and GST are not required even if charges exceed the ceiling. RWAs may claim input tax credit on inputs, capital goods and input services used for such supplies. The ceiling applies per residential unit owned.
