I have a doubt on the tax that i need to collect from my website users. I have a telemedicine application. I have four doubts. 1. My site has a subscription option where, doctors can subscribe to use our platform. Whats the tax i have to collect from doctors for this kind of subscription? 2. I have a patient booking option where patients can book appointments with doctors paying a consultation fee. What is the tax i have to collect from patients for this? 3. Should i display the amount i am collecting as tax? or i just pay the tax based on the company income? 4. Is there a requirement to collect tax for these services?
Hi
The answers to above questions depend upon various questions. Kindly let us know the below:
1. Where is the place of effective management of the website located?
2. How does the payments flow from the customers to the doctors?
3. Do you charge any commission on the consultation fees paid to tye doctors?
It would be better if these are discussed one-to-one over a consultation.
Dear Sir,

The responses are based on various factors.
It is advisable to have a phone consultation for detailed discussion.

- It is an e-commerce business and under GST you are an e-commerce operator. In case of ecommerce business, both operator and vendors are required to register mandatory without any turnover threshold limit.
1. You are liable to collect GST on doctors subscription. Doctors are exempt from GST and therefore not liable for GST registration.
2. No need to collect any tax from patient as they are customers and doctors are also exempt from tax.
3. Tax should be a part of the subscription invoice.
For detailed discussion, please take phone consultation.
How much % is the GST applicable for Subscription?
18
If GST is applicable, the rate would be 18%.
For subscription service generally GST is applicable at 18% unless the person paying you subscription is a company registered under GST in which case it will be paid under reverse charge.
We can discuss on various other points in detail once I know all the details about your application.
Hope you find the information helpful if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement. You can even book phone consultation for further personal assistance.
Thank you.
GST@18% would be applicable on the same.
