Sir, my query is:-

Company A has got a contract from of maintenece, repair of road from NHAI which is an exempted service as notification issued by tax authorities.

Company B sale raw material(stone crushed, bajri, stone dust) trough GTA to company A, where the payment of service tax liability shifts on consignor or consignee who pays freight. In my case company A pays freight to GTA but says it will not pay service tax as it is providing exempted service and will not be in a position to offset it or recover from customer which increases its cost.

my question is can service tax can be exempted as output service provider is itself providing exempted service or through any other route.

As per the latest amendment in service tax, now service tax is leviable on accrual basis istead of receipt basis. Now the question is that how the service tax be calculated in case of real estate companies, means at the time of giving possession to the customer or at the time of making aggreement.
Please explain.

If Assesse enter in to the agreement for development of Land with developer.but do not give right to developer to sale the land.so the consideration received for giving right to the developer to develop the land will attract Service tax?,
This transaction will not attract Capital gain being no possession and no sale right to the development for the time being.
