2. **Set-Up Fees from Customer:**

- If the set-up involves installation, commissioning, or similar services related to tangible goods, it could fall under **"Installation Services"** or **"Erection, Commissioning or Installation Services"**.
- If the set-up fees are related to digital services or software implementation, it could fall under **"Information Technology (IT) Services"** or **"Software Implementation Services"**.
- Each specific service may have a different SAC under GST. For instance, IT services generally fall under SAC 998314 or 998319 depending on the exact nature of the service provided.

It's crucial to correctly classify the services provided under GST as it determines the applicable tax rate and compliance requirements. Always consult with a GST expert or refer to the official GST guidelines for the most accurate classification and SAC codes applicable to your specific services.
