    will Repairs and Maintenance covered under job work in GST. if so Tariff heading is different for job work and repairs and maintenance. No change in Rate of GST for repairs which satisfy definition of job work. Can dealer proving service of repair take the benefit of this notification of reduced tax?

    if I am taking ITC on outdoor catering services then should it be 5% or 18%? if I am a normal outdoor caterer providing services in -premises whose rent is paid by customer?
