Is a pub allowed to charge compulsory service charges despite GST?

Hi Sir,

1. No, Pubs cannot charge service charges without the acceptance of the customer.
2. Generally, Restaurants and Pubs used to charge 10% as a service charge apart from GST.
3. Everything depends on your sole discretion.
4. Further, entertainment tax on PUBs and discotheques was also subsumed under GST. Previously it was 10%. Hence no need to pay Entertainment Tax also.
5. Now GST will attract other than liquor. i.e Foods & Entry Fees etc
