We observe that the section provides that the value of a supply of goods or services or both shall be the transaction value, which is the price actually paid or payable for the said supply of goods or services or both where the supplier and the recipient of the supply are not related and the price is the sole consideration for the supply. 8.3 We further observe that it has been specifically mandated that the value of supply shall include (a) any taxes, duties, cesses, fees and charges levied under any law for the time being in force other than this Act, the State Goods and Services Tax Act, the Union Territory Goods and Services Tax Act and the Goods and Services Tax (Compensation to States) Act, if charged separately by the supplier; and (b) any amount that the supplier is liable to pay in relation to such supply but which hits been incurred by the recipient of the supply and not included in the price actually paid or payable for the goods or services or both.

There is no separate contract for supply of diesel and even single invoice is issued for the supply of rental service of DG Set although both the components are shown separately. Hence, the reimbursement of expenses as cost of the diesel, for running of the DG Set is nothing but the additional consideration for the renting of DG Set and attracts GST @18%. 9. We also find that Karnataka Authority for Advance Ruling vide Advance Ruling No. KAR ADRG 44/2021 dated 30.07.2021 in the similar case of M/s. Goodwill Autos, Hubbali, Dharwad has held that the cost of the diesel incurred for running DG Set in the course of providing DG Rental Service is nothing but additional consideration for the supply of DG Set on rent as per section 15 of the GST Act and hence attracts GST @ 18%. 10. Therefore, we observe that the price of the Diesel i.e. the fuel, to run the DG Set, shall form part of value of supply in view of Section 15 of the CGST Act, 2017, as for the purpose of levy of GST, cost of all the inputs, has to be included in the va .....
