Last updated: 21 February 2023

Court :
CESTAT, New Delhi

Brief :
The CESTAT, New Delhi in Haldiram Marketing Pvt. Ltd. v. Commissioner, Central Goods and Service Tax [Service Tax Appeal No. 51555 of 2022 dated February 13, 2023] has set aside the demand order passed by the Revenue Department. Held that, no Service Tax can be levied on the activity of takeaway of food items as it would amount to sale of goods wherein, element of service such as dining facility, washing area and clearing of the tables are not involved. Further held that, permitting an associated enterprise to use a part of the premises for the sale of its product would not amount to sub-letting and would be considered as sharing of expenditure, which cannot be treated as service.
