Case Laws GST AAR

Municipal property tax reimbursements by lessee/occupier are subject to GST as part of the taxable value of supply under Sec 15 of GST Act. AAR ruled that municipal taxes levied under Kolkata Municipal Corporation Act 1980, being distinct from CGST/WBGST/UTGST/GST Compensation Acts, must be included in the supply value for GST calculation. The authority determined that the total taxable value comprises both the municipal property tax component and the base supply value, with GST applicable on the aggregate amount. This interpretation aligns with the valuation principles established under GST legislation for comprehensive tax assessment on reimbursement transactions.
