CMA Final · Indirect Tax Laws and Practice · Supply under GST

Under Section 7 of the CGST Act, 2017, which statement about activities or transactions specified in Schedule III is correct?

Schedule III activities or transactions are treated neither as a supply of goods nor a supply of services. Section 7(2)(a) overrides sub-section (1), so they stay outside the scope of supply even where consideration is paid and the activity is in the course of business.

  1. AThey are supplies of services taxable at the lowest rate
  2. BThey are treated neither as a supply of goods nor a supply of services, notwithstanding sub-section (1)Correct
  3. CThey are supplies only if made without consideration
  4. DThey are supplies of goods unless the Council recommends otherwise

Explanation

Section 7(2)(a) begins with 'notwithstanding anything contained in sub-section (1)' and says Schedule III activities are treated neither as supply of goods nor of services. So even if consideration exists, they are outside supply; option C reverses this.
