This case primarily deals with the issue of leviablilty of service tax for redistribution of electricity. The ruling in the present case is provided under the Finance Act, 1994 and has grabbed a lot of attention due to the fact that the ruling has vide implications under the GST law as well. The judgement also discusses about the ambiguity on what is considered as “service” and “sale”, for the purpose of service tax laws to apply for such transactions.
