Goods where despatched from factory to customer directly. The transporter has charged the service tax on the invoice.
Can we shall pay the service tax amount or we shall deduct the same and deposit to Gov. revenue? can we get service tax credit?

Dear SHRI CA.BHARAT BHUSAN

Commission income is chargeble to Service Tax under "Business Auxiliary Services" if you are doing any work in India for which you are receiving commission then it will be Taxable services in India.

You can not also claim the benefit of Export of Services...b'coz the proceeds are not received in foreign exchange.

If the procdeeds are received in Foreign Exchange then it will lible for Service Tax or exemption.
