In a recent landmark ruling in the case of JSW Energy Ltd. [TS-133-AAAR-2020-NT], AAAR held that ‘coal’ supplied by the principal JSW Steel Ltd. to JSW Energy Ltd. constitutes an input for ‘electricity manufacturing’, holding the transaction between them to be ‘job-work’ under GST. The de novo order passed pursuant to HC direction was diametrically different from the earlier AAAR order [TS-975-AAAR-2018-NT] in the same matter.
