  10. SUPPLY UNDER GST

  11. Supply (S. 7) The expression ‘supply’ includes – (a) All forms of supply • such as sale, transfer, barter, exchange, license, rental, lease or disposal made or agreed to be made • For a consideration • In the course or furtherance of business (b) Import of services • for a consideration, • whether or not in the course or furtherance of business • (c) Schedule I activities made without consideration • (d) Schedule II activities treated as supply of goods or services

  12. • Inclusive definition – difference between ‘include’ and ‘such as’, hence very wide • The difference between exhaustive and inclusive definitions has been explained in P. Kasilingam v. P.S.G. College of Technology (1995) Supp 2 SCC 348: “A particular expression is often defined by the Legislature by using the word ‘means’ or the word ‘includes’. Sometimes the words ‘means and includes’ are used. The use of the word ‘means’ indicates that “definition is a hard-and fast definition, and no other meaning can be assigned to the expression than is put down in definition”. (See : Gough v. Gough; Punjab Land Development and Reclamation Corpn. Ltd. v. Presiding Officer, Labour Court.) The word ‘includes’ when used, enlarges the meaning of the expression defined so as to comprehend not only such things as they signify according to their natural import but also those things which the clause declares that they shall include. • UOI vs Godfrey Phillips 1985 (22)ELT 306 (SC)- Inclusion can not be extended far away from nexus to main concept.
