Bareboat charter arrangements for hiring dredgers, vessels and allied equipment involved transfer of right to possession and effective control, so the transactions did not fall within taxable supply of tangible goods service and, after 1 July 2012, were also not taxable as a declared service. The Tribunal held that the demand for service tax, interest and penalties failed because the authorities proceeded on the incorrect premise that there was no transfer of right to use.
