In the Erstwhile Service tax Act, Notification No. 25/2012-ST (Entry No. 60) provides for exemption from Service tax for following:

"Services by Government, local authority or a government authority by way of any activity in relation to function entrusted to Panchayat under Article 243G of Constitution"

The above exemption is continued in GST vide understated provision in CGST Act.

Sec 7(2) Notwithstanding anything contained in sub-section (1),––

(b) such activities or transactions undertaken by the Central Government, a State Government or any local authority in which they are engaged as public authorities, as may be notified by the Government on the recommendations of the Council, shall be treated neither as a supply of goods nor a supply of services.

"Services To" Govt......were not exempted in erstwhile Service Tax Act, which has been recently introduced vide Notification No. 12/2017-CGST dated 28.06.17, but for Pure Services only and that too for services performed which is in relation to function entrusted to Panchayat under Article 243G of Constitution. (Specific Restriction)

15. Cattle pounds; prevention of cruelty to animals.

16. Vital statistics including registration of births and deaths.

17. Public amenities including street lighting, parking lots, bus stops and public conveniences.

18. Regulation of slaughter houses and tanneries.

CONCLUSION

Lets say if Querist is into supply of Manpower to GST Office, would it get covered under Article 243G / 243W . No, as the service is not in relation to function entrusted in relation to Panchayat / MC.

Concern of Govt is whether they provides services as stated under respective articles as above or is outsourced by Govt, both will be subject to NIL Tax, which was not the case earlier and Govt, stands to loose.

Hope I have been able to address the issue as desired.

Sh Sanjay malhotra. Can you please let me know who should pay the GST? We are supplying manpower for minimum wages for the government . Whether the information told by rajagopalan ji can be taken into account?

Sir we are supplying Labours to perform the jobs you have mentioned in article 243G and 243W. We are supplying manpower to the municipal corporation, local authorities, milk dairy. Should the service provider still pay the GST?

Let me share example and you will be able to address your query yourself.

Cleanliness of Roads, Public places is function of Municipal corporation. If the said activity is outsourced i.e. Manpower is supplied by you, then NO GST.

Likewise, if Manpower supplied by your company is performing the work which MC has to execute / or is covered under Article 243W as shared earlier, GST shall be NIL.

Dear All,

thanks for sharing your expert view, i would be glad if you answer my query which is. A company registered under GST gets a contract to operate Pay and park from municipal corporation by paying a license fees as monthy compensation and allowing me to collect money from general public who uses the pay and park facility as per their Tariff defined. Municipal corporation is charging GST on License fees as per renting of immovable property. now municipal corporation is not allowing me to collect gst over and above the predefined tariff neither they are saying the tariff is inclusive of GST. in this case the what should be the payable GST on charges collected as pay and park by the company also if this comes under pure services or under 243w etc. please clarify with notification or clauses. thanking you
