Exemption from Service tax - interpretation of “or” as “and” - governmental authority - educational institutions - Indian Institute of Technology, Patna (IIT Patna) - National Institute of Technology, Rourkela (NIT Rourkela) - While the Clarification Notification introduced an amended version of clause 2(s), the whole canvas was open for the author to define “governmental authority” whichever way it wished; however, “governmental authority” was re-defined with a purpose to make the clause workable in contra-distinction to the earlier definition.
