Issues: Taxability of charges received by a Club providing services to its members under Section 65(105)(zzze) of the Finance Act.
In the judgment by the Appellate Tribunal CESTAT MUMBAI, the appellant, a Club providing services to its members, was in dispute with the Revenue regarding the taxability of charges received from members under Section 65(105)(zzze) of the Finance Act. The Revenue argued that the charges received by the Club for services provided to its members were taxable.

After hearing both sides and reviewing relevant facts and submissions, the Tribunal referred to previous judgments, including Matunga Gymkhana case, Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry case, Sports Club of Gujarat Ltd. case, and Ranchi Club Ltd. case, which had addressed similar issues. Based on these precedents, the Tribunal concluded that the matter was no longer res integra and had been settled by previous judgments.
