assemblies of Union Territories Delhi and Puducherry. It
would receive a presidential assent when that is done

would turn into the GST Council to draft the subsequent
Central GST, Integrated GST and State GST Bills.
Apart from the above three states, Bihar has promised a
special session while West Bengal and Delhi could ratify
the Bill at their respective assembly sessions at the end
of the month. The Union Government is keen that the
requisite 16 states ratify the Bill for the subsequent Bills
are to be tabled in Parliament in the winter session to
enable a rollout of GST by April 1, 2017.

recipient of goods and/or services indicated on the tax
invoice issued by a taxable person for delivery of such
goods and/or services;
address o re ord means the address of the
recipient as available in the records of the supplier;
GST Law attaches a great importance to address of
delivery even though the address on record is
different.
e.g.
a. if the billing is to the Head Office of the company, yet
delivery is made to the unit, the address on the
invoice needs to be of the unit.
b. If goods are billed to a certain party in a State,
however, they are shipped to another State. The
address of delivery and address on record will be
different.

la d perso ally, for the purpose of agri ulture .

Government in case of the IGST and the CGST, and the
State Government in case of the SGST.
authorized a k shall mean a bank or a branch of a
bank authorised by the Government to collect the tax

appoi ted day’’ means the date on which section 1 of
this Act comes into effect.
Appointed day refers to the date when CGST/SGST Act,

COURT DECISIONS
TALLY SOLUTIONS PVT. LTD. VERSUS VERSUS
COMMISSIONER OF CENTRAL EXCISE [CESTAT
BANGALORE]
BRIEF: As per the definition of input service, the
assessee is eligible to take credit of service tax paid on
rent of immovable property (situated after the place of
removal) involved in the sales promotion activity.
OUR COMMENTS: In the above case, the assessee is
engaged in the manufacture and clearance of excisable
goods viz. Tally ERP 9 silver, Tally ERP 9 Gold Tally ERP 9
Auditors falling under chapter Sub Headings 85238020 of
Central Excise Tariff Act, 1985 and are availing the
benefit of cenvat credit of duty and service tax paid on
inputs and input services as per Cenvat Credit Rules
2004. It also availed credit of service tax on rent charges
paid of office premises
The revenue contended that service tax on rent charges
of office premises is not ineligible for credit and
accordingly issued a show-cause notice denying the
credit and also demanded interest and penalty.
The definition of input service as contained in Rule 2(l) of
the Cenvat Credit Rules 2004, is as under:
i put service ea s a y service,-
(i) used by a provider of taxable service for providing an
output service; or
(ii) used by the manufacturer, whether directly or indirectly,
in or in relation to the manufacture of final products and
clearance of final products up to the place of removal,
and includes services used in relation to modernization,
renovation or repairs of a factory, premises of provider of
output service or an office relating to such factory or
premises, advertisement or sales promotion, market
research, storage upto the place of removal procurement of
inputs, accounting, auditing, financing, recruitment and
quality control, coaching and training, computer
networking, credit rating, share registry, security, business
exhibition, legal services, inward transportation of inputs or
capital goods and outward transportation upto the place of
re oval.
In the given case, the revenue denied the credit of service
tax paid on immovable property rent on sales office on the
ground that the same has been availed after the place of
removal.
The assessee contended that office is involved in the sales
promotion activity such as conducting maintenance of
software, providing after sale service and also making
efforts to sell the product and this sales promotion is
specifically covered in the inclusive part of the definition of
input service.
The Ho ’ le CE“TAT held that as per the definition of input
service the assessee is entitled to cenvat credit of service
tax paid on immovable property rent..
The demand was accordingly set aside.
[Decided in favour of the assessee]

CENTRAL EXCISE
COURT DECISIONS
M/S. PRISM CEMENT LTD. VERSUS COMMISSIONER OF
CENTRAL EXCISE, BHOPAL [CESTAT NEW DELHI]
BRIEF: The waste and scrap arisen during repair and
maintenance work of the capital goods or on account of
dismantling old and used machinery will not be liable to
payment of excise duty.
OUR COMMENTS: In the above case, the assessee has
availed Modvat/Cenvat Credit on cement making
machinery along with other item and thereafter
continuously availed Modvat/Cenvat Credit facilities on
Machines, Machinery, and capital items etc used in the
Cement Plant.
A show cause notice was served to the assessee on the
grounds of clearing waste and scrap of goods on which
cenvat credit has been availed, without payment of duty
under cover of an commercial gate pass. The assessee
has contravened the provisions of Rule 11 of Central
Excise Rule 2001 and 2002 These waste and scrap are
goods on which appropriate duty of excise is liable to be
discharged on their clearance.
The assessee contended that the waste and scrap has
arisen during repair and maintenance work of the capital
goods. Some portion of the scrap has also arisen on
account of dismantling old and used machinery. It is also
well settled that scrap arisen in such cases will not be
liable to payment of excise duty as has been held by this
Tribunal in many cases, for example:-
1. Commissioner of Central Excise, Jaipur-II V. Birla
Corporation Ltd., 2005 (181) ELT 263 (Tri.-Delhi)
2. Grasim Cement v. CCE Raipur, Final Order No.
A/53712/2015-EX[DB] dated 02.12.2015
3. CCE, Jaipur-II v. Gujarat Ambuja Cement Ltd., Final
Order No.: A/50190/2016-EX[DB] dated 05.02.2016
The Ho ’ le CE“TAT upheld the above cases and
decided that scrap arisen in such cases will not be liable
to payment of excise duty.
[Decided in favour of the assessee]
HANDY WIRES PVT. LTD. VERSUS COMMISSIONER OF
CENTRAL EXCISE, NAGPUR [CESTAT MUMBAI]
BRIEF: Merely because buyers are interconnected
undertakings it is not sufficient to hold that the companies
are related persons and transaction value be calculated as
per Rule 8 for imposing excise duty.
OUR COMMENTS: In the above case, the assessee is engaged
in the manufacture of M.S. Wire. On scrutiny by the
Re e ue, it as fou d that three of the assessee’s uyers are the interconnected undertakings of the assessee.
The Revenue contended that the assessee is required to
discharge excise duty under Rule 8 and 9 of Central Excise
Valuation (Determination of Price of Excisable goods) Rules,
2000 i.e. on 110% of cost of production or manufacture of
said goods supplied to all the three related entities and
accordingly confirmed demand of duty, interest and penalty.
The Ho ’ le CE“TAT held that only when the buyers are
related in the sense in clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section of 4(3)
(b) or buyer is holding company or subsidiary company of the
assessee, then only, the aforesaid rules are attracted.
In the above case, Rule 8 is not applicable as the buyers do
not meet the conditions specified in clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of
Section of 4(3)(b).
Therefore, the demand was set aside.

Works Contract has been one of the most complex and litigation prone areas in Indirect Taxes.
However with good understanding of all the provisions under Service Tax & VAT which hit Works
Contracts & proper planning, Trade & Industry can not only avoid litigation but can also save around
5% - 10% on indirect taxes which by no means is an ordinary saving in the competitive market. For
Trade & Industry, the problems on the subject have been many. Over the last few years we have
received queries and replied to the issues at various forums.
Vide this publication, we have made an attempt to cover in detail all issues related to Service
Tax: Valuation, Point of Taxation, Place of Taxation, Abatement, Reverse Charge, Input Tax Credit Mechanism & VAT: Contractual Transfer Price, Modes of Valuation, WIP, STDS as well as GST . We have also focused on the issues faced by various sectors on account of Works Contract.
This book is divided into Seven Parts covering several broad areas. Each area has the
provisions directly from the Statue in the beginning and detailed discussions on the provisions
in the form of questions and answers thereafter. Since litigations on the subject have been
manifold, we have also covered judicial pronouncements extensively.
