If the agreement has a clause the supply of electricity is subject to payment of maintenance charges, then GST is to be levied as it is not an independent supply. The concept of composite supply would govern this taxation despite there is separate metre for electricity and charges are being recovered on actual basis.

However, if said charges are not recovered as a Part of maintenance service, but considering it as an independent supply, then GST shall not be charged since the full and unconditional exemption has been given [NN 02/2017-CT (Rate) dated 28.06.2017 - S.No. 104 refers]

The querist is neither engaged in the manufacture/generation of electricity nor supplying electricity.. He is paying electricity bill for and on behalf of tenant and thereafter get reimbursement. This is a case of reimbursement. Every case has different facts and circumstances.
