Whether Services received from outside India for export of services is liable to service tax? These services are provided by non resident and services are received in foreign country but payment is made from India.is it liable to servivce tax u/s 66-A? Intention of section 66A seems only to tax services received in India.
As in our case services are provided from outside India and received outside India but payment is made from India are we liable to service tax?

We are reseller of IT components and now their software licences, we have purchase a cyberroam software licenses from a vendor in Delhi and they charged the vat on total value includind service tax like : basic value is Rs. 100/- + service tax 10.3% = Rs. 110.30 +vat @4% = Rs. 114.71 (total invoice value). Is it right? If yes then anybody can give us the notification no.? Ans also want to know the accounting treatment for vat as well as service tax as per the both return.

sir, i want to ask that.
if a company has paid service tax in last year arond Rs. 50 lakhs or more.
can it claim Rs. 10 lakhs exemption while paying service tax this year?

there are two panelty provisions for the late payment of service tax,
one is: 13% interest for the delayed period
IInd is: Rs. 200 per day or
2% of the service tax per month
(which ever is higher but not exceeding the amount of service tax paid)


my question is both the panelties are simultanously leviable or mutually exclusive.

thanks in advance.
