GSTAT treats Indian subsidiary and parent as separate entities
In short
GSTAT said an Indian subsidiary and its foreign parent are separate legal entities for export-of-services assessment.
The report says the structure and contracts supported export treatment, so the company got a refund of unused input tax credit plus interest. It does not say how much money was refunded or which companies were involved.
