Collection of a corpus fund by an unincorporated membership organisation constitutes a supply because contributions characterised as advances (not refundable deposits) amount to consideration for future services; therefore such collections fall within the supply definition and attract GST. The time of supply for these corpus advances is the date of receipt/collection, as the earlier trigger under the time-of-supply rule for services. Corpus contributions cannot be aggregated with recurring monthly maintenance charges to claim the per-member monthly exemption under the relevant notification, and the specified per-member exemption does not apply to corpus fund contributions.
