You should learn all the 17 Heads + What is included in this list + What is excluded from this list.


Either Theory or/and Practical Question can be asked frm this area.


For self study I would refer you to study from CA Ajay Jain Sir book.


For your help, I can give you mnemonic for Negative List available in his book.


Mnemonic Negative List Head
A Advertisement
B Bridges (Toll)
C Cabs
D Diplomatic Missions
E Electricity
F Funeral
G Goods transportation
H House Renting (residential)
I Interest
J Jhule (Rides - Entertainment Parks,etc)
K Kheti (Agriculture)
L Lottery (Gambling)
M Manufacture (Production of Goods)
N -
O -
P -
Q Qualification (Services relating to education)
R RBI (services by RBI)
S Sarkar (Government)
T Trading of Goods

For detail refer your book. But using this mnemonic you can remember all the headings in exam easily.
