GST on commercial property rent and residential property rent differs mainly in terms of applicability and exemptions.

For commercial property rent, GST is applicable at the rate of 18%. Commercial properties, such as offices, shops, and other business premises, are considered taxable supplies under GST. The landlord must charge GST on the rent, and the tenant can claim the input tax credit (ITC) for the GST paid, provided they are a GST-registered business.

On the other hand, residential property rent is generally exempt from GST, provided the property is used for residential purposes. If a landlord rents out a residential property for accommodation, GST is not applicable. However, if the property is rented for business purposes (e.g., serviced apartments), GST may be applicable.

The key difference is that commercial property rentals attract GST, while residential property rentals are typically exempt, unless used for business purposes.
