Dear freinds

I just want to know that whether any service tax will be payable on the Freight (both incase of Sea or Air) paid to carrying the goods in India. If yes, who is liable to pay the service tax either importer or freight & forwarder? Further a notification has been issued for the exemption from the pymt of svc tx on Air freight on Import upto the extent of the value taken under section 14 of Customs Act. Further pls provide some valuation rules for section 14 of customs act also?

our company is doing re lapping and retipping of engineering tools which i suppose fall under maintainence & repairs category. Last years billed amount is 3 lacs In current year total invoiced amount of services is 12,91,000 however payments of only 8,63,000 are actually received. Are we liable to register under service tax as payment received towards taxable services are below 10 lacs?

Dear Sir,
A fabricator cotractor raised bill with Service tax - Rs. 110300 (Rs 100000 + 10300 Service tax). But company deduct 5000 Rs due some material damages and paid - Rs 95000+10300 = 105300. so what amount I will paid as service tax. and at time of prepare of ST return which amount will we shown as a turnover 1L or 95000 ?

Also company deduct TDS on 110300 Rs. (As per 26AS)

Thanks sir.

Hi All!

There were certain ammendments regarding the oenalty provisions of Service Tax, where the maximum limit of penalty has been revised to Rs. 20,000 from Rs. 2,000.

I am filing the half yearly returns of a firm for FY 2009-10 and FY 2010-2011 now, in FY 2011-12, when the new penalty provisions have been put nto effect.

My query is will the ammendments in the penalty provisions be applicable on the returns of previous years being filed now or do we go by the earlier provisions. i.e Do I have to pay Rs. 20,000 as penalty or Rs.2000 as penalty

An early reply will be appreciated as the matter is quite urgent.

Thanks!

Sir,
One of my client construct roads for TDI. Some roads for residential purposes and some roads (which were construct as per National Highway), which connects the TDI with National Highway. The roads which were construct as per National Highway specifications were actually to be construct by Haryana Urban Development Authority(HUDA), but due to delay by HUDA, TDI gives contract from their side to the contractor and pay for that. My query is that
a) Whether Service Tax will be applicable for my client or not.
b) If not, then please quote me rule/section/notification/circular/judgement.

Thanks in advance
