Examine whether GST is exempted on the following independent supplies of services: (i) Service provided by a private transport operator to Shaurya Boys Higher Secondary School by way of transportation of students to and from the school. (ii) Services provided by way of vehicle parking to general public in a Ruby shopping mall. (5 Marks)

Suggested Answer and Working Notes:

(i) Yes. Services provided to an educational institution by way of transportation of students are exempted from GST. Shaurya Boys Higher Secondary School qualifies as an educational institution. Thus, service provided by a private transport operator to Shaurya Boys Higher Secondary School by way of transportation of students to and from the school is exempt from GST. (ii) No. Services provided by way of vehicle parking to general public are not exempted from GST. Therefore, GST is payable on the services provided by way of vehicle parking to general public in a Ruby shopping mall.
