AIRSPACE ON RENT, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[Sadanand Bulbule]

Airlines pay fees to use a country’s airspace, also known as overflight fees. These fees are based on factors like the aircraft’s maximum take-off weight and the distance traveled. Countries essentially “rent” their airspace for passage.

Can airspace on “ rent” be included under the segment of supply of services by the Union Government for the purpose of RCM vide Entry No.5 of Notification No.13/2017-CTR dared 28/06/2017? And why?
