my company is a DCA cum CSA haldia petrochemicals ltd.it receives commssion on sale of goods @ specified rate and paying service tax on commission.

the company is receiving interest from its customers on delay payment and also receiving early payment incentive from Consignor i.e. Haldia petrochemicals Ltd.this EPI is based on how early payment was made. for eg.if supplier gives 14 days credit and we make payment in 14 days than no early paymnet incentive to be received. but if we make payment in 10 days it mean we paid 4 days earlier than we are getting EPI=4 Days*incentive per day.

few days earlier some people came from service tax department for service tax audit.they were telling that interest received from cutomers and EPI received from supplier are taxable service and service tax to be payable on that and they have raised demand for the same.

is the demand raised by them as per law.?
will the interest recd from customer and EPI from supplier is taxable.

Previously I have been charging service tax from the clients and depositing to the account of govt of india and filing ST returns inspite of the fact that my grossd receipts was below 8L expecting gross receipts will cross 8 L. But now as the exemption limit has been increased to 10 L and I do not find in any way my gross reciept will touch that figure. So I stopped charging service tax from april 2009 onwards.
Now being registered with ST, how I should fill my ST 3 returns - i.e under which column I will include my receipts.
PL CLARIFY
THANKS.

Sir, While reading the new amendment of TDS on Contractor (NIL if PAN provided), kindly advice me whether the Service Tax will remain same. Or Service Tax also amended
