Under Indian tax regulations, gym memberships and fitness club services fall under SAC Code 999723 at an 18% tax slab. Understanding how to handle tax-inclusive pricing, split CGST/SGST, and claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on equipment is crucial for every gym owner.
Key GST Rule for Gyms: SAC 999723
Fitness services, personal training, and health club subscriptions must be invoiced with SAC Code 999723 at 18% GST (split into 9% CGST and 9% SGST for intrastate members).
Why Register for GST Even Below the ₹20 Lakh Threshold?
While registration is mandatory above ₹20 Lakhs turnover, registering voluntarily allows gym owners to claim valuable Input Tax Credit (ITC) on commercial equipment purchases, treadmill imports, commercial air conditioning, and facility rent, saving tens of thousands of rupees annually.
