Does a Central Government Autonomous body(Higher Educational Institution)imparting training or extending their services to Colleges in the college premises attract Service Tax and if so date of payment of the tax.

i.e. The College hires the Autonomous Body to train lecturers in their (College) premises for some consideration.
Does this attract Service Tax. Audit has raised objection that SERvice tax is to be paid.

I am of the opinion since it is a Central Government Autonomous body the institute is exempt from paying the tax.

Further in case the Service has been collected but it is found that the institute is not taxable, then how to account the tax thus collected.

I shall be thankful for a reply asap as if it is to borne by the institute,iti has to be paid before 5th if I am right...
