Ice-cream isn’t sweetmeat; not eligible for concessional tax rate - Bombay High Court

CST & VAT: Maharashtra VAT: The word 'ice cream' was placed with the words 'sweets and sweetmeats' in a single entry to levy tax. Subsequently an exemption was introduced having words only 'sweet and sweetmeats'. Since the entry to levy tax forms three different category of goods therefore ice cream would not fall within the category of sweetmeat and thus wasn't eligible for exemption.
