Value of goods supplied free of cost by a service recipient does not constitute consideration for the taxable supply; consequently such free materials cannot be included in the transaction value for GST valuation and are not exigible to tax.

The writ petition was allowed and amounts deposited under interim order were ordered refunded, with no order as to costs.
