The AAR held that the applicant's dredging and de-silting services performed using Cutter Suction Dredger in specified river channels for the Government of West Bengal constitute a pure service without any supply of goods.

Consequently, the service satisfies all conditions under Entry No. 3 of Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax (Rate). The Authority ruled that the supply of dredging and removal of dredged materials falls within the scope of this entry, rendering the applicable GST rate as NIL.
