From February 2009, Service Tax Rate had changed to 10.3%. Sir, I want to know, on payment of service tax, split up goes like Service Tax 10%, Education Cess 2%, Secondary Education Cess 1%. Or else, service tax 10% and Education cess 3%. When i submited my half year return of service tax, problem arises that rate should be splitted to education cess and secondary education cess. Hence, i had to pay the Secondary edu. cess in excess. Pls let me know.

Sir,
Please tell me about the Service tax liability on lighting & decoration service.

Dear Expert(s),
I am the sole proprietor of a regional website. I publish mainly regional information and some advertisements to cover the cost of maintaining the website. I recently registered for service tax under the category of "advertisement" as that is the service that fetches revenue. (The online regional info is free for all.) Is that the right category? The only other relevant category is "online information & database access or retrieval". That is not an exact match since I do not provide database services. Pl. advise.
Thanks,
Usha

Can any of the friends explain the difference between "Rebate" and "consideration". The Service Tax Department in a case has issued SCN as to why service tax should not be levied on "Rebate" received from the Government. The STD "presumes" that the rebate is given by the Government department as a "consideration" for unspecified "services" for which there is no proof/evidence documentary or otherwise.
