20 December 2013 The first question is whethet service tax is levieable on the job work done by Company B.
Case-1 when Co A( the principal manufacturer) pays excise duty
Inthis case,Company B is not liable to pay service tax.
Reference is entry no 30(c) of the Notification 25/2012 dated 20.06.2012
Case-2 Where Co A is ot liable to pay excise duty.that is it produces exempted goods.
In this case also Comapny B is not liable to pay service tax
Reference"Service tax is not levied on any process amounting to manufacture or production of goods.Negative list Section 66D(f)
Case3:It does not make any difference if company B is a Co or a Partnership.
