I have a business where we collect money from flat owners of a residential complex for maintenance, electricity, security etc. All manpower is provided by us. we meet all expenses out of the collection money. Any extra expenses is done by the construction company as the complex is not yet fully occupied. We take very little commission for manpower supply only. Under these circumstances is service tax applicable? If applicable then how I calculate the assessable amount for tax calculation? PLZ HELP."IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THE COLLECTION BUSINESS IS PROPRIETORSHIP"

Why should credit card companies be charging service tax to their customers on interest demanded for late payments of credit debt. There is no service tax demanded on interest paid on loans, so why this anomaly?

Also if I buy some merchandise worth 100 rupees by using credit card then the credit card companies earn around 1 rupee as rest is refunded back to the shopkeepers (Rs 99). Now my query is should service tax be charged on the 1 rupee gross or can the credit card companies further reduce the taxable value of this one rupee by saying they have acted as pure agent on insurance premiums paid etc? Is further deductions allowed?

Dear expert,
One of my client is sells sim card and flexy recharge of a telecom co. For his work company pays commission to him and deduct tds u/s 194H thereon. his commission would be around 12 to 15 per annum. Whether he is required to get service tax registration, if yes, then how to deal with turnover of FY 2011-12. And for that purpose his turnove is the commission that he got from company or amount of flexy & sim cards sold also would be count.
Please advise me.
