Respected Sir/Madam,
The GST council has reduced the GST Rate on Gymnasium services (Beauty and Wellness Services) w.e.f 22.09.2025 from 18% with ITC to 5% without ITC. Following clarification are required for ITC in this case:
1) What will be the treatment of balance in electronic credit Ledger as on 21.09.2025. Should it be reversed or same can be used to discharge the output liability after 21.09.2025.
2) The GST Rate w.e.f from 22.09.2025 is 5% without ITC, If ITC is not used to discharge output liability can we claim refund of this ITC as on 21.09.2025 as same will not be used further.
Regards
Kush Kalra
GST reduction: Gym and wellness services 18% with ITC to 5% without ITC; ledger ITC not usable for those supplies Forum query concerns GST reduction on gym/wellness services from 18% with ITC to 5% without ITC effective 22 Sep 2025 and asks about electronic credit ledger balance as of 21 Sep 2025 and refundability. Respondents state existing valid ITC accrued up to 21 Sep remains on the ledger but cannot be utilised against the 5% no-ITC supply and therefore tax on such services must be discharged in cash. Possible reversals under the input tax credit reversal rules may apply for capital goods with unexpired useful life; leftover ITC generally cannot be refunded but can be used for other eligible liabilities.
