Guide
GST and TCS on tour packages, explained
How GST works on tour packages
Tour operator services fall under SAC 9985. Most tour operators charge 5% GST without input tax credit on the full package value. If you claim input tax credit on your purchases, the rate is 18%. Within your state, GST splits equally into CGST and SGST; for a customer in another state, it's charged as IGST.
TCS on overseas tour packages
When you sell an overseas tour package to an Indian traveller, you must also collect TCS (tax collected at source). From 1 April 2026, TCS is a flat 2% from the first rupee, replacing the earlier 5% and 20% slabs. The traveller can claim TCS against their income tax.
Worked example
A ₹1,00,000 domestic package at 5% GST within your state: CGST ₹2,500 + SGST ₹2,500, so the customer pays ₹1,05,000. The same as an overseas package adds 2% TCS (₹2,100), so the customer pays ₹1,07,100.
