Hi Sandeep,
You can go for GST @18%, if you want to avail input credit. True agent is referred as pure agent. It means that you are geeting reimbursed the exact amount what uou have incurred.

Gst for travel agents
Dear Sir/Madam, We are a travel agent in Kerala. We are going for GST registration. We do Hotel Bookings, Travel Packages, Cab Service etc.One of my friend in Delhi, who is also a Travel agent told me that. Under one Company(one GST No) We can show different services like 1: Tour Operator @ 5% 2: Commission Earned @18% 3: True agent model @ 18% [ working on service fee] 4: Hotel Sales @18% As far as our understanding, for 18% gst, we can avail input credit. He also said there are different service codes for the same. Also please advise us on the True agent model. Kindly give us a clarification for the same. Please send the service code also. Regards, Sandeep Radhakrishnan

Hi Sandeep,
Yes, you can provide all these services under one GSTN. However, you need to mention all these services while applying for GSTN.
In true agents model, you are working on behalf of some other person like booking air ticket on behalf of someone.
We can assist you in getting GST and filing your return.
Please feel free to call/ revert in case you need more clarity
Thanks and regards

Hi Sandeep
Yes, the information you have is correct. You can mention multiple services under single GST registration.
A pure agent is one who while making a supply to the recipient, also receives and incurs expenditure on some other supply on behalf of the recipient and claims reimbursement (as actual, without adding it to the value of his own supply) for such supplies from the recipient of the main supply.
While the relation between the service provider and service recipient in respect of the main service is on a principal to principal basis, the relationship between them in respect of other ancillary services is that of a pure agent.
Feel free to contact if any assistance is required in GST registration and return filing.
Hello,
Yes, you can get yourself registered under various service code for different rates of taxes.
I apologise but we cannot provide you with all the exact service codes because it is a very time consuming act and needs thorough understanding of the business model of the client.
Trust this clarifies your query.
Feel free to call / get back in case of further clarifications.
Thanking You.
