W.e.f 1/7/2012, the manpower consultant billing to a business entity has to discharge only 25% of the service tax liability as the provider of service. This is 3% tax + .09% cess. The service receiver has to bear the 75% of the tax liability. Therefore you have to register as service receiver and pay 9.27% tax on reverse charge basis.

1. The rate charged is as per the levy called as 'reverse charge' method.
2. But reverse charge will apply only if the service recipient is a business entity registered as a body corporate.
3. Therefore ,the levy of 3.09% is correct if your status is private / public limited company.
4. If the above condition is satisfied, you have to pay the balance service tax @ 9.27% to government after taking registation.

Dear Mr Chackrapani,
Is it possible to offset this 9.27% of Service tax with our input tax?
Or is it compulsory to make the Payment to Govt?

You can claim this as your input. Only get clarification of body corporate. Logically it would mean ltd. company but once when I had not registered a firm the ST officer had told me that body corporate in Service tax also means firms.
