Levy of service tax - Amounts received by the appellant from Priyadarshini Gas Seva [PGS] - The Tribunal notes that PGS is a unit of the appellant, and it's not uncommon for units to transfer profits to their parent company. The mere transfer of funds does not inherently indicate consideration for a service provided. The Tribunal highlights that the Commissioner's finding, suggesting that the negotiation with Indian Oil Company (IOC) for PGS distributorship constituted a service, is flawed. The negotiation, which occurred in 1984-1986 when there was no service tax levy, cannot retroactively be considered a taxable service. - Ultimately, the Tribunal sets aside the demand under this head, affirming that the negotiation conducted by the parent company on behalf of its unit does not constitute a taxable service.
