Decide as per provisions contained under the CGST Act, 2017 whether the following activities constitute supply or not: (i) Services received from Government against taxes paid.

Answer & Explanation:

Not a Supply. Tax payer pays different types of taxes to the government treasury and government performs welfare activities out of such taxes. There should be a direct link and a not any casual link between activity and consideration. Therefore, such activities do not constitute service as there is no direct link between such services and taxes; hence, such activities would not qualify as supply.
