“the expression ‘in relation to’ (so also ‘pertaining to’), is a very broad expression which presupposes another subject matter. These are words of comprehensiveness which might both have a direct significance as well as an indirect significance depending on the context. It also held that the expression ‘in relation to’ has been interpreted to the words of widest amplitude.”
5.4 The applicant has also placed reliance on the Advance Ruling in the case of A.B.Enterprise vide order No. GUJ/GAAR/R/2020/18 wherein the applicant is engaged in supplying manpower for security and housekeeping to the Central Government, State Government and Local Authority and it is upheld in the AAR that these pure services would be eligible for exemption from payment of tax subject to the condition that the services provided to these entities mentioned above are provided by way of any activity in relation to any function entrusted to a Panchayat under Article 243G of the Constitution of India or in relation to any function entrusted to a Municipality under Article 243W of the Constitution of India; that though the AAR is conditional, but the analysis of certain work orders clearly suggests that if the service recipient i.e. Central Government, State Government, Local authority is involved in any functions as per Article 243G or 243W, then the pure services provided to them would be eligible for exemption from payment of tax; that the services provided by the applicant are identical to the services provided by the present applicant in the above referred ruling and the case of the applicant is squarely covered in the afore said ruling.
5.5 The applicant has also placed reliance on Advance Ruling No. GUJ/GAAR/R/13/2021 in the case of Ahmedabad Municipal Transport Service wherein, at para-79, it is held as follows:
“79. We find that the term ‘in relation to’ used in the above exemption is very much wide enough to cover every kind of services that results in performance of the functions as mentioned in Article 243W of the Constitution of India either directly or indirectly. Even the services provided for enabling the organization to perform defined functions would also be covered as a reason of usage of words ‘in relation to’. To substantiate this, we refer to the judgement of Doypack systems(P) ltd. vs. UOI as reported in (1988) 36 ELT 201(SC) wherein it was held that”the expression ‘in relation to’ (so also ‘pertaining to’), is a very broad expression which pre-supposes another subject matter. These are words of comprehensiveness which might both have a direct significance as well as an indirect significance depending on the context. It also held that the expression ‘in relation to’ has been interpreted to the words of wid,est amplitud,e. The term ‘relating to’ expands the scope of the entry. The terms have been interpreted by the Supreme Court in the case of CCE v. Rajasthan State Chemical Works, (1999) 55 ELT 444(SC) and Union of India vs. Ahmed,abad Electricity Co.ltd.,(2003) 158 ELT 3 (SC), wherein it has been held that such words wid.en and expand the scope, meaning and content of expressions. “

We find that exemption to services provided by clinics/clinical establishments is covered under two entries of Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax(Rate) dated 28-6-2017 i.e. Sr.No.46 and 74 respectively which read as follows:
Sl.No. | Chapter | Description of Service | Rate | Condition |
46. | Heading 9983 | Services by a veterinary clinic in relation to health care of animals or birds. | NIL | NIL |
74. | Heading 9993 | Services by way of-
(a) health care services by a clinical establishment, an authorised medical practitioner or para-medics; (b) services provided by way of transportation of a patient in an ambulance, other than those specified in (a) above. |
NIL | NIL |
We find that the aforementioned entries covers services provided by veterinary clinics/clinical establishments i.e. hospitals. However, the scope of GST exemption available at above said two entries (46 & 74) does not cover supply of services provided to veterinary clinics/clinical establishments. From the study of all the copies of various contracts /work orders submitted by the applicant, we find that the following contracts pertain to hospitals:-
(i) Manpower supply of services of peon supplied to the Veterinary Hospital, Valsad.
(ii) Manpower supply of services of driver and peons supplied to the Veterinary Hospital, Dharampur.
(iii) Manpower supply of services of laboratory technicians, laboratory assistants, data entry operators, watchmen and sweepers to General Hospital, Chhotaudepur.
We hold that the subject service provided to Hospitals, aforementioned mentioned above (i) to (iii) is not covered at entry No. 46 & 74 of the said Notification.
17. Government Offices as Service Recipient.-
i. As we find specific entry for specific services provided to schools, as per entry 66(b) to Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax(Rate) dated 28-6-2017, and thereby such services provided to schools are exempted from GST; we find no Notification exempting services provided to/in Government Offices.
ii. Further, we do not find merit in applicant’s contention that services provided to Government Offices are to be equated as services provided in relation to Panchayat/ Municipality functions. If such a meaning is to be arrived for any services provided to Government offices be exempt from GST, then, that would mean that each and every service provided to/in relation to a Government Office functioning, including each and any service provided to all the Government employees working in that office, whatsoever supply of service, for the employees who function in that office will also be exempted. If Government framed a specific entry ( entry 66(b) of Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax(Rate) dated 28-6-2017 ) exempting certain services provided to/in educational institutions, then Government would also have had a specific entry exempting services provided to/in Government offices, if that was the intention of the Government. Now that we do not have any such specific entry, it would not be the correct interpretation of the law to construe that services provided and consumed in Government offices are to be equated as services in relation to panchayat/ Municipality functions. In absence of any specific GST exemption for services consumed within the said offices, we find no merit to consider applicant’s submission for GST exemption. We find that the applicant has misconstrued serial number 3 of Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax(Rate) dated 28-6-2017 to be applicable in subject matter. In conspectus of aforementioned discussions, We dismiss such claims made by the applicant.
iii. For the present case, what we infer is, the eligibility to the said entry of Cited Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax(Rate) dated 28-6-2017, lies in the wordings whether Services are provided by way of an activity in relation to a Panchayat/ Municipality Function. The wording in the Notification ‘services by way of an activity in relation to Panchayat/ Municipality Function’ will have to read as ‘services in relation to a panchayat/ municipality function’. This is the plain way of reading these wordings of the cited entry of the Notification. To illustrate, at sr no 12 of said Notification, we have the wordings, ‘Services by way of renting of residential dwelling for use as residence’, for which the plain meaning is ‘Renting of residential dwelling services’. Further at sr no 18 of the said Notification, we read the wordings as, ‘Services by way of transportation of goods’ for which the plain meaning is ‘Transportation of goods service’.
We have winnowed the plain meaning of the words, as follows:
Entry no of Notification 12/2017-CT(R ) | Wordings of the Notification | Plain meaning |
3 | Pure services ………………….. by way of any activity in relation to any function entrusted to a Panchayat under article 243G of the Constitution or in relation to any function entrusted to a Municipality under article 243W of the Constitution. | Pure services …………….. in relation to Panchayat/ Municipality functions |
12 (for illustration purpose) | Services by way of renting of residential dwelling for use as residence’ | Renting of residential dwelling services |
18 (for illustration purpose) | Services by way of transportation of goods | Transportation of goods service |
18. The Computer Operators, Peons, Sweepers, Drivers services are utilised in the Government Offices. They work in the office during office hours/ extra office hours as per requirement. To detail further, Peons move files, handle the work of Xerox, arranges for food and water for the employees as required, operate the lift, AC machines, mikes, fax machines as and when required and during meetings it will be their responsibility to switch off the mikes, AC machines, fans, lights etc. after the end of such meetings. Drivers will be required to keep the vehicles clean and in ready to travel condition. Besides, the watchman, gardener, cooks, sweeper, water bearer are all providing services within the offices/hospitals/institutions in which they are serving. We therefore find that since these services are supplied, utilised and consumed in the offices/hospitals/institutions, they cannot be equated as services in relation to Panchayat/ Municipal functions.
19. We find that the applicant has cited reference to certain Advance Ruling pronounced. However, as per the provisions of Section 103 CGST Act, the Advance Ruling pronounced by the Advance Ruling Authority shall be binding only on the applicant who had sought it and the concerned officer in respect of the applicant. Further, as we held that subject services supplied, utilised and consumed in the said offices cannot be equated as services in relation to panchayat/municipal functions, the reference to Doypack Systems case is not applicable in subject matter.
20. In Conspectus of aforementioned findings, we pass the Ruling:
RULING
