AAR ruled that reimbursement of electricity charges collected on actual basis from sub-lessees is not subject to GST. The applicant, acting as a pure agent under Rule 33(a), merely recovers the exact electricity costs charged by electricity boards/DISCOMs from sub-lessees. Evidence showed the applicant's invoices matched the original electricity bills, demonstrating a pass-through arrangement. Following recent GST clarifications, property owners and managers collecting actual electricity costs are deemed pure agents for this supply. The reimbursement amount is excluded from the value of supply, and consequently, no GST liability arises on such electricity charge recoveries.
