Centage charges collected for project management consultancy, involving only supervision, coordination and administrative management without any transfer of property in goods or works contract, were held to constitute "pure services." As such services were supplied to Government/local authorities in relation to functions entrusted to Panchayats/Municipalities under Articles 243G/243W read with the Eleventh and Twelfth Schedules, they were held exempt under Entry 3 of Notification No. 12/2017-CTR, rendering the centage charges non-taxable under GST.
