18% GST Payable on Cheese Balls’ having up to 55% Cheese

December 10, 2018 3729 Views 0 comment Print

It is observed that the percentage of other ingredients is as high as 45%, which should prevent the goods from retaining the character of cheese. Therefore acceptance of these goods as cheese would not be the correct position.
