The applicable rate of tax is dependent on whether the applicant is using a registered brand name which is defined in Notification No. 1/2017-C.T.(Rate) dated 28.06.2017 as the brand name or trade name, that is to say, a name or a mark, such as symbol, monogram, label, signature or invented word or writing which is registered under the Trade Marks Act, 1999. It is seen from the packaging that the applicant is packing in unit containers and affixing `Shri Mappillai Vinayagar Mark’.
