CRS/GDS incentives paid to air travel agents were held not taxable as Business Auxiliary Service because the agents promoted their own business, not the CRS/GDS companies or airlines. Fuel surcharge was excluded from basic fare under Rule 6(7), and the Revenue could not revalue the transaction under section 67 once that tax basis was chosen.
