AAll goods and services
BGoods only
CGoods and services, except alcoholic liquor for human consumption

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Goods and services, except alcoholic liquor for human consumption
1. Section 9(1) of the CGST Act levies central tax on intra-State supplies of goods and services or both.
2. The levy explicitly excludes 'alcoholic liquor for human consumption' from CGST.
3. Therefore option B correctly states the scope: all supplies except alcoholic liquor for human consumption.
