As per the above change through Finance Act 20009, We cannot deduct 6% WHIT from the bills of news print media. But there is no definition of news print media is given in the act.

Do the fashion magazines, digests & cooking magazines meets the definition of news print media? or just the news papers falls under the definition of news print?

Please clarify

An early reply will be highly appreciated

Thanks,
Umair
