04 June 2011 5% of bill amount excluding food and beverages. They cannot collect tax if they are unregistered under service tax.

04 June 2011 If they are unregistered you can challenge. But if they have initiated registration, it is bonafide and you can pay tax . Service tax registration is online and it takes only one day to complete the process.
