Dear Sir
we are engage in commercial Builders as a builders.
our one commercial mall project has been completed but there is some doubt about the service tax Liability.
so for protection in our self we mention a Para in sale deed As
" the seller has received form purchaser whole amount of sale consideration including service tax. The amount of service tax to be refundable by seller incase if service tax is not applicable in future."

one of my client has paid Service tax twice on the same turnover - once in March 2011- Q 4 end FY 2010-11 based on provisional invoice and again in April 2011 for Q 1 of 2011-12 based on receipts & final invoice. It is in two different FY & two different quarters - both Turnover & Service tax shown/accounted twice and Ser tax paid twice.

How to correct the mistake now? What is the procedure to be followed? What options available - Revised Return? Rectification ? Appeal ? & how to proceed.

Service tax excess paid Amount involved is around Rs.50,000.

Kindly advise. ( with references of support case laws & relevant sections)

Thanks & regards.

Hello Experts,
My query is,
Suppose there is a Construction Company who builds residential complex and sells them. This residential complex is build by company itself and not on works contract basis. Further this company receives sales consideration from its customers before the completion of residential complex in installment.
my query is whether this company should charge Service tax or VAT or both on the installment money received from its customer ???
