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.

Dear Sir,

Earlier Service tax on GTA was payable by Consignor or Consignee who pays freight.After introduction of negative list, it appears that service tax will be paid by person who pays freight. Please consider below case.

A Limited is Importer of Goods. B is clearing and forwarding agent of A. B completes all custom formalities, pays all expenses related to consignment including transportation from port to factory of A and reimburse all expenses from A.

Now in above case, consignor is A limited. As per earlier provisons service tax was required to be paid by A limited as he is consignor even the freight was paid by B on behalf of A.

Now from July 2012 onwards, who is liable to pay service tax? Either A limited in the capacity of consignor or B in capacity of payer of freight to GTA?

Please ask inncase of any more details required..
