Exemption for computer training: centres qualified as vocational or recreational institutes enjoyed service tax exemption until the exemption for computer training was withdrawn. The notification exempts taxable services for commercial training or coaching provided by a vocational or recreational training institute and was held to apply to computer training centres for the period before amendment. An administrative amendment later withdrew the exemption for coaching or training relating to computer software or hardware, narrowing the exemption's scope and rendering such computer-related training services taxable thereafter.
