As a managing partner, the appellant received 64% of the extracted ore as a share of profit, while the other partners received 36%. The Revenue alleged that service tax was payable on the value of the 64% ore received by the appellant, classifying it as "Mining of Mineral, Oil or Gas Services." However, the CESTAT held that the appellant's receipt of 64% ore was merely a profit share as a partner and not consideration for rendering services. Relying on the Gujarat High Court's judgment in Cadilla Healthcare Ltd., the CESTAT ruled that a partner's profit share cannot be considered a consideration for services rendered to the partnership firm. Consequently, the CESTAT set aside the impugned order, allowing the appellant's appeal. en-us Fri, 13 Dec 2024 07:23:05 +0530 Fri, 13 Dec 2024 07:23:05 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=83938 The appellant, being a partner in the partnership firm M/s.
