By way of Notification No. 25/2012 – ST dtd. 20.06.2012, the Government has exempted service by an individual advocate or a partnership firm of advocates by way of legal services to, -

i) an advocate or partnership firm of advocates providing legal services;

ii) any person other than a business entity; or

iii) a business entity with a turnover upto Rs. 10 Lakhs in the preceding financial year.

“Legal service” is defined to mean any service provided in relation to advice, consultancy or assistance in any branch of law, in any manner and includes representational services before any court, tribunal or authority.

“Business entity” is defined to mean any person ordinarily carrying out any activity relating to industry, commerce or any other business.



My query is that turnover of "business entity" in what respect?

turnover of rs. 10 lacs means releated to "services" or other mean?

If a service recepient is partnership, then what is the liability of reverse charge of service tax? whether partnership firm has to register under reverse charge of service tax ?

Dear Sir,

Service tax to be charged on rent payable is 12.36%. One of my customer is asking, as per the Notification No.30/2012 25% of service tax payable by the person providing service and balance 75% of service tax payable by the receiving the service. please inform weather it is 12.36%? or 3.09%?

Folks,

Pl. update,
can we take INPUT credit on the service tax, for the transactions under reverse charge mechanism.

eg. MRA service 75% of receiver and 25% by provider (from Non corporate to Corporate)

Now the question is,
can the service receiver take the credit of 25% collected by the service Provider.

Pl. update
