The article addresses whether corpus/sinking fund contributions collected by a residential association constitute "consideration" and attract GST. It applies the statutory definitions of supply and consideration, rejects the doctrine of mutuality by operation of the deeming provision, and treats the association as a person distinct from members. Corpus contributions are characterised as advances for future supply of membership-organisation services and are distinct from recurring monthly maintenance by purpose and accounting.
