Service tax on corporate guarantees arises only where consideration is received for rendering a taxable service. Corporate guarantees extended to associated enterprises without commission, fee or other consideration do not create taxable value merely because a notional amount can be computed using prevailing bank-guarantee rates.

The demand for service tax on such guarantees was therefore dropped, and the Revenue's appeal was dismissed.
