State of Maharastra Vs Sarvodaya Printing Press Fine Art Printer (1999) 114 STC 242 (SC). In this case the assessee supplied revenue money receipt books to Electicity Board on contract. The Court decided transfer of paper and ink is merely incidental to the contract of printing and hence there is no element of sale is involved and hence the transaction is WORKS CONTRACT.

Also look at CBDT Circular 715 dt 8/8/1995 in which a question is 'Whether section 194C would apply in respect of supply of printed material as per prescribed specifications?' The answer given therein is 'YES'.
