(ii) education as a part of a curriculum for obtaining a qualification recognised by any law for the time being in force;
(iii) education as a part of an approved vocational education course
are exempted as they are listed in he negative list under section 66D (l). The above said service does not include service by coaching institute and therefore the service provided by such coaching institution are not in negative list and therefore taxable.
