Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions About This Tool

What is the standard cancellation refund policy for banquet halls in India?

Standard Indian venue contracts specify: cancellations >60 days prior forfeit 25% of the booking token; 30 to 60 days forfeit 50%; and cancellations under 30 days forfeit 100% of the advance deposit due to lost prime Muhurat dates.

How is GST handled when an advance booking token is refunded?

When an advance deposit is refunded, the venue must issue a statutory GST Credit Note under Section 34 of the CGST Act, adjusting the previously paid tax liability in Table 9B of their monthly GSTR-1 return.

Can a client claim a refund if the event is cancelled due to rain or weather?

Standard venue contracts specify that outdoor lawn weather contingencies are the client's risk unless an indoor hall backup was explicitly booked in the master agreement.
