Hello Everyone,

I paid service tax of Q2 in Oct 2015 and for Q3 in Jan 2016. Later on I came to know that the service is exempted. There is no other service during the year. Hence no liability of service tax.

So I want to know where I should show it in my service tax returns. As advance in Q3 - Q4 return. or no action in current year. Show it in advance when the liability arises.

Whether liable to pay service tax ?

I am currently providing electrical contractor and maintenance services to PWD, MP however department is not paying me any service tax. They are saying that the services provided to the state govt is exempted under finance act whereas as per my CA service tax has to paid on the amount received in bank.
Please suggest me whether am I liable to pay service tax or the services provided to state govt is exempt. Even If I am liable to pay service tax on the receipts then how can I get this service tax from the PWD as the service tax is Indirect Tax.

How to claim mega exemption of 10lac

Hi,
Pls advice me how to fill ST-3 to claim Mega Exemption of 10 Lac. While filling ST-3, it is automatically calculating tax and no option to nullify the tax liability.

Is the taxable turnover to be disclosed NIL upto 10Lac or is there any other way.

Mega Exemption Notification

Transport of passengers, with or without accompanied belongings, by a Stage carriage falls under the negative list entry (o). Therefore there is no levy of service tax in this case. However, Mega exemption notification serial number 23 exempts - Transport of passengers, with or without accompanied belongings, by (bb) stage carriage other than air-conditioned stage carriage Why is it also mentioned in the exemption notification when there is no levy in the first place? Also why no exemption is provided to air conditioned stage carriage? Please resolve my queries. Thanks.
