Consultancy fees claimed as business expense-can tax disallowance rest on survey suspicion despite invoices, contracts and bank trail? Appeal dismisse...
Applicant sought tariff classification and GST rate for a commodity ('sago pulp') allegedly used by other manufacturers; the authority found the queries did not concern the applicant's own supply of goods or services and therefore fell outside the statutory definition of an advance ruling under the CGST/TNGST framework. Because the request related to third party use rather than the applicant's proposed or actual supplies, the application was held not maintainable and rejected; no advance ruling was issued.
