    <title>Carbonated drinks in restaurants are composite restaurant service under Clause 6(b) Schedule II, Entry 7, taxed 18% GST</title>
    <link>https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=95093</link>
    <description>AAR held that supply of carbonated drinks (aerated water) by the applicant&#039;s restaurant, whether served alone or along with food, constitutes &quot;restaurant service&quot; and a composite supply under Clause 6(b) of Schedule II. The beverages are value-added, served in restaurant glassware with accompaniments, and consumed using the restaurant&#039;s facilities, thus qualifying as supply of &quot;any drink (other than alcoholic liquor for human consumption)&quot; as part of restaurant service. The principal supply is restaurant service, taxable as a service under Entry 7 of Notification 11/2017-Central Tax (Rate). As the restaurant is in a &quot;specified premises,&quot; the applicable GST rate is 18% on such supplies.</description>
