The correct answer is

Service Tax

The Constitution (Eighty-Eighth Amendment) Act, 2003, inserted Article 268-A and added an entry in the Union List to provide a constitutional basis for the levy of tax on services.

This amendment empowered the Union Government to levy service tax, which was earlier being collected under residuary powers, giving it explicit constitutional backing.

Hence, the 88th Amendment Act, 2003, is related to Service Tax.
