To facilitate foreign investment into the country a number of steps have been taken by Government of India in the past. Setting up an Authority for Advance Rulings (Central Excise, Customs & Service Tax) to give binding rulings, in advance, on Central Excise, Customs and Service Tax matters pertaining to an investment venture in India is one such measure. The legal provisions of Advance Rulings were introduced through the Finance Acts of 1998, 1999 and 2003.

The applicant have themselves submitted that the scrap is the property of the vendors. Hence question with respect to taxability of sale/supply of such scrap can be raised only by the concerned vendors and not by the applicant. Hence in view of the provisions of Section 95 of the GST Act, since the supply of scrap, will not be undertaken/is proposed to be undertaken, by the applicant, we are of the opinion that this authority is not allowed to answer the question raised by the applicant, being out of the purview of sec. 95 of CGST Act.
In other words, Section 97(2), which encompasses the questions, for the ruling by this Authority does not deal with the issue of whether a GST registration should be surrendered. Hence, it is held that this authority does not have jurisdiction to pass any ruling on such matters.

The Applicant’s question is related to the components of the amount that the Licensor, as supplier of the service of leasing of immovable property, is charging on it.
