Supply of sharpeners along with pencils amounts to ‘Mixed Supply’ taxable at the higher rate among all the supplies


Quick Summary
The Gujarat AAR has ruled that supplying pencil sharpeners along with pencils constitutes a 'Mixed Supply' for GST purposes. This means the entire kit will be taxed at the highest GST rate applicable to any single item within the pack. The ruling clarifies that such combined supplies, when sold for a single price and not naturally bundled, fall under the definition of mixed supply.
