Company Renting Apartment for Director Must Pay GST Under Reverse Charge Mechanism: Exemption Only for Personal Use A landlord has rented an apartment to a private limited company, which is used by the company's director for residential purposes. The discussion revolves around whether the company, as the tenant, is required to pay Goods and Services Tax (GST) under the reverse charge mechanism (RCM). The consensus among the forum participants is that the company must pay GST under RCM, as the exemption applies only when the property is rented to a registered person for personal use, such as a proprietor using it as a residence.
