What about the service tax charged in invoice by goods transport agency whereby transport expenses have been paid by supplier company and the same have been recovered from the customer company.

Who is liable to pay service tax to the government either the supplier company or the customer who actually bears the transport expense under reverse charge mechanism?

I want to ask if a consultant/Professional services provider raises an invoice including services tax. Can he reverse service tax in his books and pay full amount to his customer.

For e.g. if “A” company/Firm issued an invoice of amount 56180 (50000+ stax-6180 =56180) in Apr’12 to “B” an individual, for services and assures him if he is not able to complete the task in future. He will refund complete fees to “B”, which “A”is not able to complete in say February’13(Same F/y). So can “A” refund “B” full amount of invoice i.e.56180 and reverse service tax amount in his books as adjustment/sales return or Is “A” can refuse to pay service tax part amount to “B”, saying that he had deposited the amount with government (Service tax deptt.)?

Can Clarify I have two queries:----
1. is Service recipient is required to register himself in ST Department if Service Tax liabilities comes on him on reverse Charge?

2. if i allredy registered as a service Provider do i need to take register again?

i wants to know whether we can avail service tax credit for payment of service tax to director and Advocate

Dear Sir,
I have a query regarding the levy of Service Tax on some services.
Suppose there is a Packer & Movers Company and provide the relocation services to its clients.
It has to shift the client's household items to Singapore. Now after packing & loading the goods on the port,
goods are sent to Singapore port and there it take the services of agent to move the goods from Singapore port to its final destination, i.e. at client home situated in Singapore.
For this services provided by agent to it, agent raises bill on it and company do payment.
Now my query is this, whether this payment made by company to its foreign agent is exempt from Service Tax under reverse charge mechanism???
As there is a Notification No-8/2011 of ST which exempt this services from the levy of ST.
Kindly solve my query and obliged.
