Hi,

We are into manufacturing of Agricultural Products i.,e Plastic Latex Collection Cups that comes under exempted in case of KVAT (Kerala Vat). Ours is a Partnership firm. We uses private transport for selling and for that we are bearing the complete transport charges. Do we need to pay service tax in this case. The matter is our consultant says that as we are a partnership firm the service receipent won't pay the tax and service provider has to pay the tax both in case of Carriage outward and inward we itself need to pay tax as per reversal rule of service tax. Should We need to pay service tax.
