Issues:
- Eligibility for concessional tax rate on supplies made to a specific institution. Analysis: The case involved an application seeking an advance ruling on the adoptability of a notification to supplies made to a specific institution. The applicant, engaged in supplying scientific and technical instruments, inquired about the eligibility for concessional tax rates for supplies to a research institution. The application was forwarded to jurisdictional officers for remarks as per the relevant Act. A personal hearing was conducted where the applicant's representative submitted necessary documents related to the supplies intended for the institution. The ruling authority examined the application and the certificates issued by the institution to which supplies were intended. The institution was identified as a public funded research institution under the administrative control of the Department of Space, Government of India. The authority referred to a specific notification providing concessional rates for goods supplied to such institutions and outlined the conditions for eligibility. However, upon reviewing the list of goods intended for supply by the applicant, it was found that they did not fall under the categories specified in the notification for concessional rates. Therefore, after a thorough examination of the issue, the ruling was delivered stating that the goods intended for supply by the applicant to the institution were not covered under the relevant notification, and hence, the concessional tax rate was deemed not applicable to the supplies in question.
