Content ownership determines GST treatment of printed publications: customer-supplied text is a taxable printing service, owned content is exempt good...
Employee recoveries, input tax credit and notice pay recovery under GST: AAR distinguishes taxable supplies from non-taxable perquisites and penalties...
Taxability of payments to an overseas joint venture for business support or IT software services depends on place of provision rules and whether the overseas entity is treated as a distinct person. The Tribunal reasoned that "operational and administrative assistance" has wide scope but classification remains governed by the service description provision; the expansion to include such comprehensive services took effect from 01.05.2011, so earlier receipts cannot be taxed under that head. Reimbursements or intercompany fund transfers are not consideration for taxable service and cannot be taxed as gross receipts. Applying precedent, the Tribunal held the challenged consultancy payments to the foreign JV were not liable to service tax and dismissed the appeal.
