The Appellant provided services to Canpotex. The issue was whether these services were classifiable as Business Auxiliary Services (BAS) or Business Support Services (BSS)/Business Promotion Services (BPS), and the place of provision. The CESTAT held that u/r 3 of POPS Rules, the place of provision was Canada, Canpotex's location, as Canpotex was the recipient obliged to make payment.
