It is common for businesses in the hotel or food and beverage industry to impose a service charge (usually at 10%) on their goods and services provided. The service charge is subject to GST as it is part of the price payable for the goods and services provided.
The GST chargeable should be calculated based on the total price payable (inclusive of service charge).
