1 WIRC of ICAI Controversial Issues Indirect Tax Information Technology Software CA Bharat Shemlani 20/08/2011
2 Background ASSOCIATED CEMENT COMPANIES LTD (128) ELT 21 (SC) Goods (Customs) - Drawings and designs - All tangible movable articles are goods for charge of customs duties under Section 12 read with Section 2(22)(e) of Customs Act, 1962, irrespective of what the articles may be or may contain - It may be that what the importer wanted and paid for was technical advice or information technology, an intangible asset, but the moment the information or advice was put on a media, whether paper or cassettes or diskettes or any other thing, that what is supplied becomes chattel - Drawings, designs, manuals and technical material are goods liable to customs duty - Fact that Reserve Bank of India permitted remittance of payment for them on Form A-2 which is used to pay for services and not for goods, not decisive of the issue - Sales Tax case law on goods has no applicability under the Customs Act. 2
3 Background TATA CONSULTANCY SERVICES (178) ELT 22 (SC) Software - Sales tax - Goods - Computer software in canned form - Sale of the shelf as sub-licence by its licensee on floppy/cd/hard drives with ownership remaining with developer thereof - HELD : Since software was capable of abstraction, consumption, use, transmission, transfer, delivery, storage, possession etc., it was included as material, articles and commodities in definition of goods in Section 2(h) of Andhra Pradesh General Sales Tax Act, 1957 and, accordingly its sale by licensee was liable to sales tax - Plea that software was not tangible movable property and hence not goods rejected. 3
4 MVAT Taxable under Schedule Entry C-39 under MVAT Act. Software Package (not defined) Rate of Tax is 5%. No set off is allowed except dealers trading in software. 4
5 MVAT L.M.L. LTD (258) ELT 321 (SC) Computer software is the set of instructions that allows physical hardware to function and perform computations in a particular manner, be it a word processor, web browser or the computer s operating system. These expressions are in contrast with the concept of hardware which are the physical components of a computer system, and data, which is information that performs no computation and gives no enabling instructions to computer hardware but is ready for processing by the computer software 5
6 Service Tax Information technology software means any representation of instructions, data, sound or image, including source code and object code, recorded in a machine readable form, and capable of being manipulated or providing interactivity to a user, by means of a computer or an automatic data processing machine or any other device or equipment; 6

8 Service Tax Management, maintenance or repair means any service provided by (i) any person under a contract or an agreement; or (ii) a manufacturer or any person authorised by him, in relation to, (a)management of properties, whether immovable or not; (b)maintenance or repair of properties, whether immovable or not; or (c) maintenance or repair including reconditioning or restoration, or servicing of any goods, excluding a motor vehicle; Explanation. For the removal of doubts, it is hereby declared that for the purposes of this clause, (a) goods includes computer software; (b) properties includes information technology software; 8
9 Excise Duty/CVD Central Excise Tariff item covers Information Technology Software. The definition of Information Technology Software is same as defined under service tax. Document conveying the right to use software by themselves do not satisfy this definition and therefore do not qualify for classification under this tariff item because they do not contain any representation of instructions, data, sound or image recorded in a machine readable form, which is capable of being manipulated or providing interactivity to a user. Paper licenses or Personal Unlocking Key (PUK) PUK), usually in the form of a scratch card of paper board or plastic merit classification as per their individual character under heading 4907 in case of paper license and heading 4911 in case of PUK card, the same being other printed matter. 9
10 Exemption In the context of assessment of pre-packaged software imports, Notification No. 30/2010-CE(NT) dt 21/12/ 2010 by which all such packaged software or canned software were brought under the purview of assessment based on retail sale price.

11 Exemption These exemptions have been issued in order to rule out taxation of this portion of the value twice-once as Excise duty/additional duty of Customs and another time as Service Tax on the consideration that all package software is not sold as shrink wrapped software and that affixation of retail sale price is not required for certain categories viz. (i) software on optical media supplied free of charge, for which right to use or license is purchased separately; (ii) full pack -packaged software with limited validity, not for resale and generally imported for demonstrations or for OEMs; (iii) up-grade full pack-packaged software-supplied free of charge under annual maintenance/subscription/software assurance contract; and (iv) up-dates for packaged software-supplied free of charge under annual maintenance/subscription/software assurance contract etc. 11

Such software will, however, be exempt from payment of service tax under the category ITSS (item (v) of 65(105)(zzzze) as provided in Notification No. 53/2010-S.T. Dt 21/12/
13 Exemption On the other hand, such packaged/canned software, on which affixation of retail sale price is not required under the relevant provisions for the packaged commodities, and the assessment is based therefore, on the value determined under section 4 of the Central Excise Act, 1944, the excise duty/cvd will be charged only on the value, excluding the value representing consideration for transfer of right to use such packaged/canned software. However, service tax under the category ITSS would be levied on such portion subsequently. 13

19 Case law INFOTECH SOFTWARE DEALERS ASSOCIATION 2010 (20) STR 289 (Mad.) ITSS- Sale v. service - Software whether treatable as goods and if so, transaction to be treated as sale or service when supplied to customer as per End User Licence Agreement (EULA) - Sale of software contended as liable to sales tax/vat as goods and service element absent - Law as to whether software is goods or not, settled by Supreme Court ruling in TCS case [2004 (178) ELT 22 (SC)] - Software is goods as per Article 366(12) of Constitution - Software being an intangible property can be considered as goods for levy of sales tax - Transaction whether amounting to sale or service depends on individual transaction - Terms in EULA indicating dominant intention of parties whereby developer retains copyright of software while right to use given to subscriber or member - Software as such not sold by developer as per EULA - Transaction between members of petitioner-association and customers is not sale of software as such but only contents of data stored in software which amounts to service only 19
