We have released a Work order to a vendor for supplying material for maintenance work of a machinery, say the material value is Rs. 200000. In the same order, we ordered for servicing of the machinery for which the cost comes around Rs. 50000/-. The vendor is charging VAT on supply part and Service tax on Service portion.
Can anyone explain whether TDS is applicable on total invoice value or only on service portion?

Sir,

I am auditing a Cooperative credit society of HUL..which also provides transport facilities to HUL's employees, who are all its members. The society has hired 3 buses and pays monthly hire charges alongwith diesel expenses and driver's salary. The owner of the buses charges service tax on an amount, (i.e. hire charges+diesel expenses+driver's salary). I just want to know that under which service the person is charging service tax because under the Rent-a-cab service, the serive tax is payable on hiring of motor cab or maxi cab and the buses do not come under the definition of these cabs. So please clarify if the person is right in charging of service tax.
