Pigmy agents engaged by a bank were treated as employees because the relationship was marked by pervasive control, supervision and disciplinary oversight, with commission functioning in substance as wages. Their services rendered in the course of employment fell within Schedule III read with section 7(2)(a) of the GST law and were therefore neither a supply of goods nor a supply of services.
