A statutory electricity regulatory commission's tariff, licensing and allied regulatory functions were held to be adjudicatory and regulatory in nature, not trade, commerce or business. Fees collected for discharging those functions were therefore not consideration for a taxable supply, and the Schedule III exclusion for services by courts and tribunals applied.
