I am working in SEZ developer company. There is One of the Contractor providing consultancy. It has taken 10% of the contract amount as an advance wothout charging Service Tax on the same since it is exempt for service provided to SEZ. Now as there is notification regarding charging of Service Tax for service provided to SEZ. It bills Rs. 80000 per month. Now on which amount service Tax is to be charged Rs.80000/- or Rs.72000(80000 less 8000 being 10% advance). I have read that Service Tax is charged on reciept basis.
Please Help me.
Thanks in advance.

Dear All,

Please guide me for the following query :-

"A" is a manufacturer of goods and supplies to "B" who is a customer through "C" - an agent. The Invoice raised directly by A on B.
Howver, the freight is being paid by the C (Agent)- out of his commission, and he books the freight as expenses in his books of accounts .

"A"(consignor) & "B"(consignee) are not paying freight to the transporter.
"C" who pays the freight is neither a consignor nor consignee ? In such a case, who is liable to pay Service TAx ?
