New Delhi : Business houses buying tickets for individuals need to provide details about their GST registration to the airlines in order to avail benefits under the new tax regime.  The GST framework, which came into effect from July 1, provides for certain input tax credit on air tickets.

 “It is now mandatory for guests travelling for business to add their company’s GST details at the time of booking. To ensure a seamless experience, we request that you inform your guests travelling for business to register on our portal and claim up to 12 per cent back on flights,” Jet Airways said in a communication.
