I am having some different opinions regarding taxability of the same. The constitution of India provides right to the state to collect taxes on sale and purchases of goods within the state.
Hence, the word "goods" is to be understood in common parlance only.
Article 366(12)-“goods” includes all materials, commodities,
and articles;
Definition of `goods' as given uses the term `includes', and, therefore, is not exhaustive. Even then, it is only the general meaning commonly given to the term that is to be applied and not the `stretched' meaning endeavored by the Forty-sixth Amendment. In a sale of goods, the goods are the prime consideration while the identities of the sellers and purchasers, the contracting parties, have secondary importance, at times none at all
