Content ownership determines GST treatment of printed publications: customer-supplied text is a taxable printing service, owned content is exempt good...
Employee recoveries, input tax credit and notice pay recovery under GST: AAR distinguishes taxable supplies from non-taxable perquisites and penalties...
Provision of canteen and employee transportation facilities was treated as activity in the course of business, with two separate supplies identified: service from the third-party provider to the employer, and outward supply from the employer to employees where amounts were recovered by salary deduction. The recovered portion was held to be consideration liable to GST, while only the employer-borne concession was treated as a perquisite. The employee transport arrangement was not accepted as exempt non-air-conditioned contract carriage under Notification No. 12/2017, since it was characterised as vehicle hiring with operator. Input tax credit was also denied because employee transportation was held to be used for personal consumption under section 17(5)(g).
