Supreme Court rules states to decide tax on lottery, not Centre

The Supreme Court of India dismissed the Centre's appeal, ruling that lottery distributors are not liable to pay service tax to the Union government. The court affirmed that taxation on lotteries falls under state jurisdiction, confirming the Sikkim High Court's decision. Lottery distributors will continue to pay the state-imposed gambling tax. The case originated from a 2013 petition by Future Gaming Solutions Pvt Ltd.
