BEFORE THE AUTHORITY FOR ADVANCE RULING (TELANGANA): In Re: Macro Media Digital Imaging Pvt. Ltd. MANU/AR/0088/2018

FACTS
• The Applicant is engaged in the business of manufacturing and sale of digital printed materials.
• The Applicant manufactures printed trade advertising materials like banner flex using various inputs like ink, paper etc.

ISSUE
• Whether printing of advertising material is supply of service?

OBSERVATION/RULING
• The court observed that the Applicant’s supply is a composite contract- a transaction involving both services and transfer of property in goods and the two are inseparable in the execution of the contract. It was a works contract in terms of S.2 (57) (d) of the West Bengal VAT, 2003.
• Works Contract as defined in S.2 (119) of the GST Act excludes from its ambit all such composite contracts that do not involve building, construction, and alteration etc. of any immovable property.
• Therefore, under the GST Act the applicant is making a composite supply where the service of printing is the principal supply. The goods supplied having no use other than displaying the printed matter, is ancillary to the principal supply of printing.
