Levy of service tax - bowling alley income - scope of ‘amusement facility’ - The case involved a dispute regarding the taxability of income from a bowling alley operated by the appellant. The Department contended that since the appellant provided additional services within the premises, the bowling alley income was not exempt from service tax. However, the Tribunal determined that the bowling alley qualified as an 'amusement facility' under the relevant provisions of the Finance Act. Charges for accessing the facility were deemed exempt from service tax, regardless of the additional services provided within the premises.
