GMR Group, the owner of Delhi Daredevils, will have to pay 14 per cent service tax on tickets sold by it, after the Delhi High Court refused to stay a central government notification by which the tax was imposed on non-recognised sporting events, like IPL, from June last year.
While refusing to grant interim relief to GMR, a bench of justices S Muralidhar and Vibhu Bakhru issued notices to the Centre and Delhi government, seeking their replies by September 27 on the plea of the company.
GMR challenged a May 2015 notification by which 14 per cent service tax was levied on entry to entertainment events, where the cost of the entry ticket is above ₹500.
