Please clarify. A hospital is providing accommodation to it's doctor consultants and collecting rent from the doctors. While paying the professional fee for consultation, the hospital paying off net amount (after deduction of rent amount). Amount of such rent for the whole year exceeds Rs. 10lakhs. Now the question is whether the hospital is required to pay service tax on such rental income?

Dear Sir/Madam,
We are providing works contract service to various clients in tamilnadu. when we will make invoice, our vat rate 70% on total value as per tnvat rules and service tax rate 40/60/70 % on total value as applicable. Now our client asking, you are paying vat on 70% value and service tax on 40/60/70 % value, which is does not match. So my question is what vat & service tax rate i should follow ? Because if we calculate total percent then it will come 100% above. Request you to kindly reply me.
Thanks in Advance.

Dear Experts,
We have received the services from service provider in the month of April and May 2016
Service provider has raised invoice to us on or before 31.05.2016. He has not mentioned the KKC in his invoice.

We are running a chain of restaurants and all our restaurants are on rental basis. In a single premises we are having both air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned restaurant with clear demarcation. My question is our internal auditors are objecting that for air conditioned restaurant you are collecting service tax on abatement and for rent also to that proportion only you have to take input. Since Non air conditioned restaurants you are not collecting any service tax you are not eligible for input. My contention is, since both AC and NON AC restaurants will come under one company, I cannot segregate and also for the services the entire service tax paid is taken as input and the same rule is applicable for rent also. Kindly enlighten me.
