Case 1- In this case it's purely supply of service. Hence only SAC code 998881 with GST rate 18%

Case-2-Fabrication of body on the chassis provided by customer would be still classified as service of job work and hence attract GST rate of 18% with same above mentioned SAC code as per the clarification by CBIC. You are eligible to claim ITC on all materials purchased in the process of fabrication.

Please elaborate.

Because there are a few advance rulings which have taken the same view. Inspite of the fact that advance rulings are specific to the applicant and cannot be generalised but still it throws some light on whether interpretation on similar lines are considered reasonable and justifiable.
