Sir,

Clause (d) of Section 7 (1) of CGST Act, 2017 has been deleted retrospectively and new sub-section 1A has been inserted retrospectively. Therefore only activities mentioned in Schedule of CGST Act which are made or agreed to be made without consideration will b e treated as supply under CGST Act.. Sub-section (1A) specify supply of goods can be treated as supply of service or supply of service can be treated as supply of goods. Therefore any supply made without consideration as mentioned in Schedule I alone will be treated as taxable supply. Other supplies without consideration will not be treated as taxable supply.
