A Cooperative Society engaged in transportation of goods by road and already paying service tax towards freight paid, has incurred expenses regarding Labour Charges (Paldari) for loading and unloading of transported goods.
Please tell me Service tax implications on these labour charges for handling, that is any service tax liability arises for cooperative society on such payment and also abatement and exemptions thereof.
