Similarly, the Government of Andhra Pradesh, vide G.O.Ms.No.588, dated 12.12.2017, issued similar notification exempting payment of tax for the services rendered by such Agency. As these two notifications are still in force and no notification is issued modifying or overriding the same, the writ petition deserves to be allowed. This Writ Petition is allowed, declaring the action of the respondents in demanding C.G.S.T. and A.P.G.S.T. at the rate of 9% each on the monthly license fee paid by the petitioner for the work contract of maintenance of toilets at respondent No.4 bus station as illegal and improper.
