Moreover if i am not wrong hotels and transport vendors charge gst in their bill. How does it work. Request your guidance

Answer 1

If you are not registered,don't charge GST. Don't show 0% GST in invoice. If you are registered,then you have to mandatorily charge GST even if turnover is less than 20 lakhs. Taxability is triggered the moment you get yourself registered.

Rate of tax depends upon the goods or services you are supplying. Please note- 0% rate of tax can be charged only for 0-rated items and that means only exports or supplies to SEZ. In no other case,you can show 0% as a line item of tax in your invoice.
