1. The petitioners, who are the auction purchasers of the scrap or intending Bidders have approached this Court by way of present petitions with the following prayers:-

f old and junk buses of the KSRTC vide Annexure-A for E-auction commencing from 11.09.2017.
3. The grievance of the petitioners is that in the said notice inviting tenders (NIT) from the intending purchasers of these scarp buses, the rates of GST (Goods and Services Tax) as recently introduced in India w.e.f. 01.07.2017 applicable in the said notice is given in Col.No.4 of Annexure-A Notice as “As applicable /28.0”.
4. The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the rate of GST Tax applicable on the scrap buses which cannot be plied on road as normal buses and they can be put to auction only after being certified by the concerned RTO Authorities as the scrap, not fit to be plied on road, cannot attract 28% rate of GST under the new GST regime enacted in the Central GST Act, 2017 and Karnataka Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and therefore, this Court by interfering in the present petitions may direct the Respondents-KSRTC to collect the GST Tax only at the rate of 18% under

ubmitted before the Court that the rate of GST quoted in the said E-Tender Notice Annexure-A issued by the Respondent-KSRTC is mentioned as “As applicable/28.0” and its not fixed at 28% only. He submitted that if the petitioners have any confusion with regard to the correct rate of GST, they are at liberty to either approach the Respondent-KSRTC itself for clarification or the competent authority, namely, Authority for Advance Ruling under the provisions of Section 96 of the CGST/KGST Act, 2017. Therefore, there is no justification for this Court to interfere at this stage.
6. Having heard the learned counsels for the parties, this Court is satisfied that at such initial tender process initiated by the Respondents-KSRTC, the present petitions filed by the petitioners are premature and misconceived and do not require any interference by this Court at this stage. First of all, the GST rates as indicated in the said E-Tender Notice Annexure-A does not give the fixed rate of GST at 28% as

ther modify the rates of Tax in the E-Tender Notice issued by the Respondents-KSRTC or to decide the academic question about the correct rate of GST Tax applicable on such scrap buses, which are being put to auction by the Respondents-KSRTC and the provisions for advance ruling in this regard have been enacted in the said enactments as indicated above. The petitioners can either approach such authorities for advance ruling about the rate of GST Tax in the matter. Otherwise, the determination of rate of tax or correct tax liability is done at the time of regular assessment proceedings. If the said Authority is presently not manned and constituted and as submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners, again it does not render it a fit case to invoke writ jurisdiction at this stage. It is for the petitioners to approach and represent the concerned Government for the constitution and manning of these Advance Ruling Authorities, as prescribed under Section 96 of the GST Act.

Chapter Thirty Nine
GST on Charitable and Religious Trusts
'The provisions relating to taxation of activities of charitable institutions and religious trusts have been borrowed and carried over from the erstwhile service tax provisions. All services provided by such entities are not exempt. In fact, there are many services that are provided by such entities which would be within the ambit of GST.
GST exemptions for specified services supplied by charitable and religious trusts have been provided in notification No.12/2017-Central Tax (Rate) dated 28th June, 2017 S.Nos.1, 13 and 80.
Notification No.12/2017-Central Tax (Rate) dated 28th June 2017, S.No.1
This notification exempts services provided by entity registered under Section 12AA of the Income-tax Act, 1961 by way of charitable activities from whole of GST vide entry No. 1 of the notification, which specifies that

nment including watershed, forests and wildlife.
Thus, services supplied by charitable trusts are exempt from GST only if following conditions are satisfied.
(a) Entities are registered under Section 12AA of the Income-tax Act, and
(b) Services or activities by the entity are by way of charitable activities as listed in the notification.
There could be many services provided by charitable and religious trusts which are not covered by the definition of charitable activities as given in the notification. Such services would attract GST. For instance, services of transportation of passengers for a pilgrimage or grant of advertising rights to a person on the premises of the charitable or religious trust or on publications of the trust or granting admission to events, functions, celebrations, shows against admission fee or ticket etc. would be leviable to GST:

Services other than by way of conduct of any religious ceremony such as granting rights to collect parking fee in the parking lot of the trust or granting photography rights in the premises against a fee or allowing advertisements on the premises of the religious place or in the publications of the trust shall be leviable to GST.
The notification also exempts renting of precincts of a religious place meant for general public owned by an entity registered under specified sections of the Income Tax Act subject to the consideration charged for such renting not exceeding the prescribed ceilings as given above.
'The term “religious place”, as defined in clause (zy) of the said notification, means “a place which is primarily meant for conduct of prayers or worship pertaining to religion, meditation, or spirituality”.

emption is applicable to renting of precincts of religious places of all religions.
Activities other than conduct of religious ceremony and renting of precincts will be taxable irrespective of the manner or the name in which the consideration is received. For example, if donation is received with specific instructions or mutual understanding between the donor and the receiver that religious place will host an advertisement promoting business of the donor, such donation will be subject to GST. But if donation is received without such instructions or without a quid pro quo in the form of supply of any goods or services by the trust to the donor, it shall not be subject to GST.

Govt notifies GST cess hike on mid & large cars, SUVs

Govt notifies GST cess hike on mid & large cars, SUVs
GST
Dated:- 12-9-2017

New Delhi, Sep 12 (PTI) The government has notified levy of increased GST cess of up to 7 per cent on mid-size, large and SUV cars.
The GST Council on September 9 had decided to hike cess on mid-size cars by 2 per cent, on large cars by 5 per cent and on SUVs by 7 per cent to bring tax rates on these cars at pre-GST levels.
The Finance Ministry late last night notified the hike in quantum of cess to be levied on cars, following which the new rates came into effect.
The effective GST rate on mid-size cars will be 45 per cent, and on large cars it would be 48 per cent.
The rate will be 50 per cent on sports utility vehicles (SUVs), which include cars

vied.
An ordinance was promulgated last week to hike the cess from 15 per cent to up to 25 per cent. The Council then on September 9 decided on the quantum of hike in cess in various segments.
After the GST council meet, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had said that in large vehicles where affordability of consumers is high, the cess has been increased.
"The pre-GST rate has not been restored… Even though we had a headspace of hiking cess by 10 per cent, it has been hiked by up to 7 per cent," Jaitley had said.
The highest pre-GST tax incidence on motor vehicles worked out to about 52-54.72 per cent, to which 2.5 per cent was added on account of Central Sales Tax, octroi etc.
Against this, post-GST the total tax incidence cam
