GST exemption for local authority services: pure solid waste management to a Gram Panchayat is exempt where it fulfils Panchayat functions.
Case-Laws
GST
Solid waste management services supplied to a Gram Panchayat qualify for exemption under Entry No. 3 of Notification No. 12/2017 because both cumulative conditions are met: the services are pure services (not works contracts or composite supplies involving goods), satisfying the recipient/character requirement as a local authority, and the services relate to functions entrusted to Panchayats under Article 243G of the Constitution, with solid waste management falling within Eleventh Schedule entry on health and sanitation. The factual activities (collection, transportation, segregation, processing, street sweeping and public awareness) were held to fall within that scope and thus are exempt from GST.
