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

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.
