1. b)Service Tax:  In a Big relief to chit fund businesses, recently the Hon’ble Supreme Court dismissed the Special Leave Petition against the Delhi High Court Judgement. Hon’ble Delhi High Court earlier held that –

“In a chit business, the subscription is tendered in any one of the forms of ‘money’ as defined in section 65B(33). It would, therefore, be a transaction in money. So considered, the transaction would fall within the exclusionary part of the definition of the word ‘service’ as being merely a transaction in money”.
