The AAAR determined that electricity and water charges collected by a lessor from a lessee constitute part of the principal supply of "renting of immovable property" under Section 8(a) of the CGST Act, not a separate supply. The lessor cannot be considered a pure agent as there is no sub-meter in the lessee's name and no authorization for payment. The exemption for electricity transmission/distribution services under Notification No. 12/2017-CT(R) does not apply as the lessor is neither a Distribution nor Transmission Licensee under the Electricity Act, 2003. Consequently, GST is applicable on the entire consideration including electricity and water charges at the rate applicable to renting services.
