Dear sir,

Our company is importing technical know-how from Germany.
1. Do the company need to pay R&D Cess @ 5% on import of technical know-how? Are there any exemptions from this levy?
2. As per my understanding Cenvat credit of Service tax paid (@ 5.30%) can be taken. But is it anyway possible to take Cenvat credit / Refund of the R & D Cess paid? Please provide procedure to claim the same.

i am not satisfied your answer. The Labour contractors, who supplied their own Labour on contract could not be covered under the definition of man power recruitment agency.

Hi,

If a builder constructs flats to be sold on its own ( that is land is also owned by the builder). The complex he constructs contains both commercial and residential flats.

So under what service should he register

- Sec 65 {30}construction of complex
- Sec 65 {90a) residential complex

If a construction company uses a service of a transporter to transport goods from one of its construction site to another within the same city limits, is the service receiver liable to pay service tax as per reverse charge machenism under Goods transport Agency (GTA). Is there any circular for such service?

Whether service tax is leviable on rent received from immovable property.

Consider the recent judgments on the issue

Dear Experts

Our company has a unit of Hard Coke Unit and company wish to give the unit on lease basis i.e. actual production per MT x rate per MT. Now my quarry is that whether service tax & TDS is applicable on this type of transaction? If yes then what will be the rates.

Copyrights services have been exporrted from India. The film industry is in India. The amt. has been recd. in foreign exchnage from service recepient. No agreement is there between service provider and service receiver. Since it is export of service, no service tax charged by the service provider. How shall I prove that it is export service?

Dear Sir/Madam

Please give me advice

What is the provision of service tax when the service provider doesn`t have service tax Registration No (as he is not eligible for this) for booking of the bill for which he received service from others
