RENTING OF IMMOVABLE PROPERTY
It is well settled by several Supreme Court judgements that the act of manufacture is the taxable event in excise, the act of import is the taxable event in the case of import duty, the act of exportation is the taxable event in the case of export duty, and the act of sale is the taxable event in the case of sales tax. In the same vein the act of adding value is the taxable event in the case of value added tax. And in the case of service tax the taxable event is the act of rendering service. It cannot be the realisation of payment for service.
