Air Conditioning and Fire Extinguishing Systems Lease Ruling Sent Back for Comprehensive Tax Classification Review

May 22, 2025

Case Laws     GST     AAAR

The AAAR remanded the case to the WBAAR for a fresh determination of the tax classification for leasing/rental services involving air conditioning and fire extinguishing systems. The appellate authority found that the previous ruling cannot be considered a binding precedent, as advance rulings are specific to individual applicants under Section 103 of the CGST Act, 2017. The case requires a comprehensive examination of the contractual agreement to ascertain the precise nature of asset use and whether the items constitute goods or become part of immovable property. The AAAR directed the WBAAR to conduct a detailed reassessment, considering all relevant aspects, including the existing 28% GST payment, and issue a new ruling.
