Third-party marketing organization denied GST exemption on yoga course fees due to failure proving pure agent status under Rule 33.
Case-Laws
GST
AAR held that third-party organization marketing exempted yoga courses cannot claim GST exemption on yoga course fees collected on behalf of yoga institutions. While Rule 33 CGST Rules 2017 permits exclusion of amounts collected by pure agents, applicant failed to provide documentary evidence establishing compliance with mandatory conditions including contractual arrangements authorizing expense incurrence, separate invoice indication, and strict cost pass-through without markup. Without demonstrating pure agent status within Rule 33 parameters, GST exemption on yoga course fee component was denied. Organization remains liable for GST on entire transaction value including collected fees despite underlying yoga courses being exempt.
