Case Law Details
In re Shiv Shankara Health Care Enterprises (GST AAR Tamilnadu)
Whether the goodwill paid to the partners at the time of retirement is liable to be taxed under GST Act.
We have carefully considered the application, various submissions of the applicant, remarks of the jurisdictional officers and the request for withdrawal made by the applicant. The issue on the applicability of GST on the ‘Goodwill’ extended by the applicant to the retiring partners can be arrived at only after analyzing the details as to how the goodwill was arrived at and the related accounts which have not been furnished by the applicant. The applicant for the reasons that their consultants are not available has requested for withdrawal of the application. In this scenario, we find that the withdrawal is to be permitted as the issue cannot be decided based on the submissions made by the applicant. Therefore, withdrawal is permitted without offering any observation/comment on the admissibility of the application under Section 97(2) of the TNGST/CGST Act 2017 and the applicability of the GST on the ‘Goodwill’.
