..... ll not be a mixed supply if these items are supplied separately; The above illustration gives an indication of the intent of the legislature, viz. it makes it clear that what is to be treated as mixed supply is a combination of supplies wherein each of the items forming part of the supply can be supplied separately and are independent of each other, but are supplied in conjunction with each other. For a supply to be termed as mixed supply, the determining factors are: (i) There should be two or more individual supplies (ii) The supplies should be made in Conjunction with each other (iii) The supply should be made for a single price by a taxable person (iv) Such supply does not constitute a Composite Supply.

Even as per terms of payment, payment is done for the entire set and not individual items, implying the supply is being made for single price per unit. Further, this supply cannot be termed a composite supply because the supplies involved are not naturally bundled and only one of the supply cannot be determined as a principal supply. Hence, in this case there are two or more individual supplies, supplied in conjunction with each other by a taxable person for a single price, which does not constitute a composite supply.
