my co. is a service provider and execute turnkey contract an liable to pay ST. our client wants bill under CS scheme by applying 4 % ST so that his cash outflow is less. we want to raise bill charging full 10 % tax so that input tax credit can be taken. my query is :

can we raise bill by charging 4 % ST as asked by our client and make assessment with ful tax liabilty on taxable value and take input credit . this is beneficial for us. for rest 6% of tax one credit note and one debit note can be issued.
can we do this?? any legal problem doing this?? any other way we can do this??

we are print media and the service pravided by us is not taxavble (either sales tax or service tax ) can we take services tax credit and ues the same when we provide taxable service now we are paying services tax on behalf of transporters only

Hi...

One of our clients does preparation of documents to customers to facilitate ISO Audit. Does This attracts service tax ?

Is ISO audit related to management activity?

Under which service, the above mentioned activity is covered

we are a mfg unit regd under CE (availing full cenvat on inputs and also charging full excise on finished goods).
we pay service tax on various input services' bills like BSNL Telephone bill, courier bill, ISO Audit fee's bill, general insurance premium on factory bldg, machinery and stocks, legal & prof. charges bill (all bills in the name of the company).
we also pay service tax on inward freight, availing abatement ( on 25% of freight value).we have taken service tax regn no. only for this.
Now, (a) can we take credit of service tax paid on other input servicesas mentioned above-if we avail abatement on paying service tax on inward freight ? (b) can we take cenvat credit in excise for service tax paid on inward freight ?
seeking your advice with relevant rules / notification / judgements etc.

Can any post the circular or link where it is mentioned that service tax input can be taken only on those services which are liable for output tax???

Pls guide me whether i will be able to pay service tax on incoming material or not in both cases. Whether vendor is charging tentative cost of freight or getting reimbursed of freight paid by him.

SIR,
WE HAVE PURCHASED MATERIAL FROM OUTSIDE THE STATE & FREIGHT FOR THE SAME IS RS. 5000/-. SERVICE TAX IS NOT CHARGED ON THE SAME BY TRANSPORT OR CONSIGNOR . WHETHER WE SHOULD CHARGE THE SERVICE TAX ON SAME OR NOT. IF YES THEN AT WHAT RATE.

THANKS IN ADVANCE
