06 July 2012 Thank you for your reply sir.

Shall I have any notification on this.

02 August 2025 In Tamil Nadu, the VAT treatment for coffee and tea sold through vending machines in hospital coffee shops has been clarified in previous discussions. Specifically, liquid coffee or tea sold via vending machines in hospitals is not subject to VAT.
Additionally, a notification dated 11th July 2011 (G.O.Ms.No.78) under the Tamil Nadu Value Added Tax Act, 2006, specifies a reduction in the rate of tax payable by any dealer on the sale of certain goods to five percent. However, this notification does not explicitly mention coffee and tea sold through vending machines in hospitals.
