Dear Sir, Pl read this notification carefully & also analysis the complete view of this service. As per my opinion, I brief here, there are two service w.r.t canteen. One is provided by employer to his employee & second is provided by contractor to employer. This notification exempted the service provided by employer to his employee not to the contractor. For more clarification plz read this : https://www.caclubindia.com/share_files/s-tax-on-canteen-service-61638.asp

This is the service provided by employer only they have only out sourced it. Hence exempted. Awarding a contract to supply food in a canteen amounts to supply of food by employer. Take other experts view available in this regard.
