Employee recoveries, input tax credit and notice pay recovery under GST: AAR distinguishes taxable supplies from non-taxable perquisites and penalties...
Centralised service tax registration fixes jurisdiction for issuing and deciding demand proceedings, and proceedings initiated by a different Commissionerate were held unsustainable where the taxpayer's centralised registration with Kolkata was undisputed. The Tribunal also held that the contract was for execution of specified loading and unloading work, not manpower supply, because payment was linked to output, the contractor retained supervision and control, and liability for improper handling remained with the contractor. On that basis, no reverse charge service tax liability arose. The demand failed both on jurisdiction and on merits, and the impugned order was set aside.
