Dear All,
I have a practical problem & need your help:-
There are 3 companies in a A, B, & C.
Company "A" has Vehicle, which are used by Co. "B" for hiring them to co. "C".
Company B receive transportation charges( which is his only source of income) from co. C, out of which it pay a fixed amount (for paying EMI to bank by co. A) to co. A.

If CO. A show amount as Rent than it has to charge TDS (@ 2% & S. Tax 10.3%
Deducting TDS is no problem as "B" can adj. agst Tax Liability.
Question is how we can save the Ser. Tax amount.
Pls suggest me a way come out of the problem.


Many Many Thanks

My client has been paying service tax since 2008-09. During the yrs 2009-10 & 2010-11 his turnover has been around 8 lakhs only and he was paying service tax on it. Is he liable to pay service tax for current year. Can he avail the benefit of basic exemption of 10 lakhs.

Is service tax and VAT applicable on Service Charges collected in addition to the food and liquor in AC Restaurant. If it is applicable what is the ST and VAT Rates in Karnataka. How it should charge.

Please reply me at the earliest.
thanks

My company had purchased a machine and given Carriage/Transporting the same at site. The transporter charged 4,00,000, the have provided Transit & Fire (ONE YEAR) Insurance of 70,000 as Free on cost and also the same is not mentioned in Tpt. Bill. The Insurance Cover/Policy/premium receipt shows Service Tax charged by the Insurer Company. We had not paid any single paisa separately for such Insurance but entire 4 Lacs paid against transport bill.
Please advice:-
1. whether we can avail the Cenvat credit for Service tax liability ?
2. Should the cost of Machine should be reduced by such free insurance value ?

Dear Friends,

There are two proprietorship concerns named A & co whose proprietor A and another is B & Co. whose proprietor is B. Both are husband & wife.

Now the business of these two proprietorship firms has been closed and one new company is made named AB & Co. with director of A & B.

A new ST-2 registeration certificate has been obtained in the name of company.

There is no service tax billing in these two proprietorship firm but input bill is received so whether input credit can be taken which is on the name of firm while filing return of company just because of transistion transaction.

pls clarify me..........

“residential complex” is defined as complex comprising of (i) a building or buildings, having more than twelve residential units; (ii)...and(iii)...
Now the question is such limit of 12 residential units is for one residential scheme? or for all the residential schemes in operation by the taxpayer during one financial year?
