is lawyer is liable for service tax registration? as he is the only partner remain in the partnership firm & all other partners has been retired?

section 68(2) has been amended to consider the service provider and service receiver both as person liable to pay service tax to the extent specified against each one of them in certain cases..

my query is relating to works contract..

for works contract service:
% of service tax payable by the person providing service is 50%

% of service tax payable by the person receiving the service is 50%

my question is:
1) how the assessee should prepare bill what will be the break-up

2)is there a need for assessee to take service tax number of the person receiving the service

3)if suppose service receiver doesnot have s/t number then what?

4)if suppose the service receiver doesnot pay his share of tax then who will be liable for that tax,int,penalty?

anyone please reply on this matter.
Thank You.

Hello Expert

The company is liable to tax based on MRP valuation ie under 4a.... the doubt was can the company offset the service tax credit given under rent with the excise liability under 4a valuation.... The same can be done under 4 ...but 4a ?

company is not registered under service tax
