Dear Sir

I have some doubt on Service Tax Rates under composition scheme.

Earlier when Rate was 12.36% it comes out 4.12% (12.36% of 33.33% Value =4.12%)

At present Rate is 10.30% hence It should come 3.43% (10.30% of 33.33% = 3.43%)

But during one discussion I came to know that Rate of Service Tax under Composition scheme is still 4.12%.

Please confirm me whether it is true or 3.43% is correct.

Thanks

Can the company claim credit for ST paid on exps related to branch?

Now the company has shifted its branch office to another state. So registration of the branch will be at the new location. Can the company any how claim the ST credit for ST paid on exps incurred for branch at old location?

Certain consultancy services were availed at branch office, which was pertaining to company as a whole. Should the ST paid on such consultancy exps be considered as branch exps or HO exp?
