Last updated: 22 May 2026

Court :
Bombay High Court

Brief :
The Hon’ble Bombay High Court in the case of Hindustan Equipment Craft v. Assistant Commissioner of State Tax [Writ Petition No. 1257 of 2026, order dated February 27, 2026] held that assignment of leasehold rights to a third party constitutes transfer of benefits arising out of immovable property and does not qualify as a “supply of services” under the GST regime, thereby not liable to GST.
