Dear Friends,

Please clarify on the below issue

A Forwarder received USD 1000 from a shipper who had given his shipment for export from India. He paid USD 800 as freight to the Main Line Operator (MLO) and retained USD 200 as consideration for the shipment. Is the amount of USD 200 will attract service tax?

Regards

service tax is payable under new composition scheme @ 0.25% on turnover of the money lender, money changers and FE agents. I am not sure this will apply to your case.
