Dear Shri Anilkumar,

Many thanks and congratulations for such a detailed, well researched article.

Though it has covered almost every point, I feel that possibly through an oversigh has missed arguments regarding applicablity of Service tax on software downloaded electronically (through internet).

Association of packaged software resellers – ISODA – Infotech Software Dealers Association has filed a writ petition in Madras High Court with very similar arguments, in Feb 2009.
