Goethe Institute/Max Mueller Bhawan have six institutes across India which provide linguistic and cultural training to young Indians preparing for their stay in Germany.

They are registered under GST at Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Kolkata, and Pune. Prior to 1st April, 2023, the Institutes did not collect GST from their students nor did they pay GST to Government as they were under the bonafide belief that their activities are exempt from GST.

The 55th GST Council has recommended to regularize the payment of GST on services provided by Goethe Institutes/Max Mueller Bhawans for the period from 01.07.2017 to 31.03.2023 on ‘as is where is’ basis.
