State universities collecting affiliation fees and no-objection certificate fees were held not to make a taxable supply under GST because their affiliation and NOC functions were mandatory statutory duties, not voluntary commercial activity carried on in the course or furtherance of business. The Court distinguished the universities from the State Government and local authorities, and applied the definition of business in Section 2(17) to conclude that such receipts did not fall within Section 7. The GST assessment orders on those fees were therefore set aside, and the exemption notifications were not examined.
