Whether reimbursements to a foreign representative office constitute taxable "consideration" under the reverse-charge for business support services: Tribunal found the representative office to be a back-end extension of the appellant, with expenses borne by the appellant; reimbursements are mere expense recovery and not separate agreed consideration, so not value of taxable services.

Impugned order set aside; appeal allowed. - CESTAT
