Deemed sale or not - right to use the software - Antivirus Software license key/code supplied by the respondent along with CD/DVD replicated with Quick Heal Brand Antivirus Software through dealers/distributors to the EndCustomers is liable to Service Tax or not - The artificial segregation of the transaction, as in the case on hand, into two parts is not tenable in law.
