23 June 2016 Dear Sir,
If any person has uploaded any video on you You-Tube which can be viewed or downloaded after payment only and you tube is giving a proportionate income to the person who has uploaded the video , which you-tube is earning from advertisements reflecting on it. So, the payment received by the person from You Tube is taxable under Service Tax or not?
If it is taxable, then in which service category that person would be covered ?
Or if Service Tax is not leviable, then he is exempt as per which notification?
Your opinion would be valuable for me.
Thanks in advance.
