A cab operator,
not availed abatement by ignorant; but collected the tax and paid in full.

Pl. advise how to get back the amt of excess payment.

What is the procedure/formalities to avail abatement.

If Mr.X started his business 5 years back. His service come under the purview of service tax. First year his turnover was rs. 7 lacs. 2nd year his turnover was 14 lacs. 3rd year his turnover was 8 lacs. 4th year his turnover was 7 lacs. The officer of service tax visited his premises and found that Mr. X has not yet registered with service tax department. So he issued notice to the client and demanded service tax for 3rd and 4th year. The assessee is innocent and even didn't know about service tax. He didn't collect service tax from his customers and this fact also known to the officer of the department. Is the department is tenable in law? if the turnover exceeds more than 10 lacs in one year and below that limit in subsequent years. Is it mandatory for the assessee to collect service tax for the year which the turn over is below the limit? Please clarify

dear experts


i have a problem "if a person or entity provide a taxable service with a annual turnover less then 9,00,000. he raised bills with amount of service tax." is he liable to pay service tax??

I have Vodafone distributorship, company is giving us Recharge coupon including service tax i.e company is giving Rs. 5000 coupan @ 100 in Rs.48150/- means Purchase 48150/- & sales 50000/- or take as commisssion Rs. 1850/- ????

I also give 50% or more to local retailers of my area in commission or 1 to 1.25% ?

what kind of treatment I need to do ?

Do I consider as purchase/sales and take that amount in VAT return ? or treat as commission and file st return only ??

While doing the calculation for quarterly service tax the formula we use is (service tax we have to paid - service tax we have already paid).In case of Gen service tax we have paid e.g inr 10000/- can we deduct the full amount from what we have to pay or only the 15% of that amount. Awaiting replies from experts.
