The airbnb running under the trust and the trust was registered GST. I understand that airbnb (residential) income is GST free, however, the trust still can claim the GST for the expenses since the trust was registered for GST?
With GST-free supplies you are able to claim the GST on expenses. However residential rent is not GST-free. It is an input-taxed supply. With an input-taxed supply you do not include GST in the rental charge and are not able to claim the GST on any expenses related to that income. See link
