When booking a hotel in the Andaman Islands or anywhere in India, the GST (Goods and Services Tax) rate depends on the declared tariff of the room per night:
Up to ₹1,000: Usually exempt (0% GST) depending on local state regulations.
₹1,001 to ₹7,499: Attracts a standard 12% GST.
₹7,500 and above: Attracts an 18% GST.
Discounts: GST is legally calculated on the transaction value (the price after the discount is applied), which helps lower your total tax burden!
