Mr Sharma holds a savings account with a bank branch whose records show his address as Nagpur. While travelling in Goa, he uses the bank's services through an ATM there. What is the place of supply of the banking services to him?

The place of supply is Nagpur. For banking services to an account holder, the place of supply is the recipient's location as recorded by the bank. Where the customer is physically present when using the service does not change this.
