Beware - IBIS charging 18% GST instead of 12% on rooms

Is it on published tariff or invoice including discount?

I thought it was published tariff. Hence even if you get less than 7.5k, you will be charged higher rate.
 
It is always on invoiced amount. That pecisely is the reason when we `book using points, the invoiced amount is nil and hence no taxes.
I am not talking about the end user invoicing.

To determine the GST slab of a hotel, the published tariff is used. This is to be sure govt doesn't lose tax revenue due to discounting.

It is not true. As per GST law the invoiced amount shall be considered for GST. Not on the MRP (in this case the published tariff). Please read this blog. (at the bottom the calculation is clearly explained for a room of 10K).

Thanks, yes it seems to be modified in 2018 to take the invoice value. Good for us.

But the restaurant is still taxed at 18%, each and every time I cursed for this in a fine dining restaurant in hotels.

Only if it is a restaurant in a hotel. Standalone restaurants I think charges 5% only.
