GTA: Transport of iron ore was composite service, not separate cargo handling.

January 9, 2025

Case Laws     Service Tax     AT

Appellant provided services of loading, unloading, shifting, and transportation of iron ore under separate contracts. CESTAT held it was a composite service for transportation, not cargo handling. Loading/unloading activities were incidental, contract couldn't be artificially divided. For 2010-11 to 2011-12, goods were exported, so demand set aside. For extended period, demand time-barred as no suppression of facts by appellant who believed no service tax payable. Appeal allowed, demand unsustainable.
