[Guest]

whether boat riding, camel riding, Horse riding are taxable services if provided alongwith MANDAP KEEPER service? Is the case is different if the same is provided in routine business?

Apparently such services are taxable.

They may not be liable unless the contract is one which is a lump sum and the main servcie is liable as mandap. This appears to be servcie of recreation/ leisure which may not be covered under mandap keeper.

AI Summary

Taxability of recreational rides may depend on whether they are supplied as part of mandap keeper service or standalone leisure. Whether boat riding, camel riding and horse riding are taxable when supplied with mandap keeper service or in routine business depends on whether these activities are integrated into the mandap keeper service or constitute separate recreation/leisure services; one view treats them as apparently taxable when supplied with mandap services, while another contends they may not be liable unless the contract is a lump-sum placing the rides within the main taxable service.
