Through Notification No. 53/2010 Service Tax CBEC has provided conditional exemption from service tax to the right to use packaged/canned software. Prior December 21, 2010 Notification No. 2/2010 and 17/2010 was present for similar kind of exemption. The conditions for availing exemption from Service tax is as below:

(a) In respect of software manufactured in India - The manufacturer, duplicator, or the person holding the copyright to software has paid the appropriate duties of excise on the entire amount received from the buyer (b) In case of software Imported into India - The importer has paid the appropriate duties of customs on the entire amount paid by him.

Query:- In case the manufacturere covered under SSI and not making actual payment of Excise duty would get benefit of exemtion in service tax. (Mind the word used is appropriate duty of excise has been paid)

Dear Expert,

WE are a private limited company. We are assembling hardware & software produts & selling to our customers as integreted unit.here price of both hardware & software is very difficult to bifurcate & hence our invoice does not shows this.

We are adding VAT / CST to our clients in our bill. Do we need to charge Service tax as well, if yes on which value ?

Pls reply.Thanks

If university also provided its employees for umpiring and charges their fees along with ground rent of land, whether service tax would be liable on umpire service to the university in this case.

Dear All

Can any body tell me that whether service tax credit is allowed on the mobile reimbursement to employee.

For example, if company reimburse 1000 Rs. per month to a employee , whether servie tax credit is allowed ,it is specially note that mobile phone bill is in the name of employee only not in the name of company.

If yes the please attach any such clarification OR notification by deptt.
