India GST Refund Allowed on Cancelled Airline Tickets

India’s Goods and Services Tax (GST) authority has issued guidance that passengers can claim a GST refund on airline tickets that are cancelled, provided the airline returns both the ticket fare and the GST amount. The rule simplifies the refund process and ensures taxpayers receive the tax component back when services are not delivered.

GST Refund on Cancelled Tickets

  • Passengers can claim back the GST paid if the airline refunds both the ticket fare and the GST amount.
  • The directive from the GST Authority aims to streamline refunds and protect consumer rights.
