As i need a classification in regard to the case of paying service tax for the bills raised or for the amount received.

As we have paid service tax for one of our client in bill basis for the FY 2011-12.Now(FY 2012-13) we has received money for the bill raised in the FY 2011-12.

My Clarification is either we should show the amount in ST-3 Returns for Apr to Jun?.

In case yes, Where should i enter in the ST-3?

Please clarify the below doubt:

We are a manufacturing company and are having construction activities going on in our factory. We have given the construction activity going on in our factory to a contractor who is billing us under works contract service scheme. Now once the bill is issued can we claim the cenvat on input services(works contract service-50% charged in bill) on the basis of the bill. Also please advise whether we have to ensure that the 50% service tax shown and charged in the bill has been paid by the works contractor to government and if so within what time limits such amount has to be paid to Govt by the works contractor for us to claim the cenvat.

SIR I HAVE TAKEN REGISTRATION OF SERVICE TAX 1.5 year before filling return properly AND st-2 was issued to me accordingly online without sign by ac/dc...they have not yet demanded any document.

but now i have to open my current account in bank therefore they are demanding st-2 copy....will they be satisfied with unsigned copy of st-2.

Dear Sir,

I want to know the impact of Circular No. 164/16/2012 –ST, dated 20.11.2012 (Restoration of service specific accounting codes for payment of servcie tax) on the below point-

1.Registration of servcie tax

2.Payment of service tax

3.Filing of servcie tax

If all accounting codes would have been restored for payment of service tax than we have to make payment of service tax according codewise, in this situation which code will be under reverse charges mechanism i.e. manpower, rent-cab, advocate and work contract.

Thanks!

Hi i have a doubt in cenvat credit for a private limited company ,

Here is a problem,

Service tax collected in july is Rs.20000, but not paid till november after that no service tax has been collected, service tax paid on july, august, september on some services like telephone comes to Rs.1800.

Now can we claim Rs.1800 as Cenvat Credit for service tax collected on july, the payment is to be made on november.

A company obtains power from the Electricity Board and from the same, connection is provided to the residential quarters of the employees. Every three months, charges are collected from the employees based on the rate charge by the Board after allowing certain number of units as free usage. Whether Service Tax is payable on the electricity charges collected from the employees? Particularly in view of the fact that the electricity is goods and therefore, the above transaction amounts to sale of goods. However, in the e-guide issued by the Department in Para no. 4.11.2, it is clarified in a similar situation of developer that the said transaction will not fall in the negative list i.e. taxable.

Thanks
