It is correct in terms of N/N 14/ 2013- ST, dated 22nd Oct'13.
However, the said notification is subject to dual interpretations:
A) whether services provided by canteen in a factory is exempt?
B) Whether services provided(even by third party) in relation to serving of food by canteen in a factory are exempt?
In my view, the second interpretation holds good.
Therefore, the practise followed by service provider seems to be correct.
Furthermore, even if he doesn't charge, it shall not affect your liability.
