Food supplied by an independent outsourced caterer to a hospital...

Food supplied by an independent outsourced caterer to a hospital is a separate taxable supply, not a composite healthcare supply, because the caterer contracts only to supply food and cannot rely on the healthcare-provider clarification. Reliance on that clarification, although legally incorrect, does not by itself establish fraud, wilful misstatement, or suppression with intent to evade tax; the demand must therefore proceed under the ordinary tax-demand route. Where invoices did not separately identify or collect tax, the invoiced consideration is tax-inclusive and differential tax must be recomputed using cum-tax valuation after invoice verification.
