A house is given on rent and service tax is collected at the rate of 10%.

The landlord has paid property tax on the house and takes exemption on the same while making payment of service tax to the Government.

For Example:
Rent- 10000
Service tax collected -1030

Rent- 10000
(-) Property tax-1000
Service tax actually paid-927

My question is
1. Should the landlord reimburse the excess amount of service tax collected from tennant or
2.Should he make the payment of total service atx collected to the Govt

Jyoti

4. most importantly can i claim refund for the previous quarters or months which have passed.

Dear Sir,

In a case of High Sea Sales, when we receive commission from the manufacturer, whether it attracts service tax or not.

Example:
If A is a manufacturer in foreighn country, B is Indian Company which buys material from A and sold it to C, another Indian Company when the material is in transit. For that transaction if A pays commission to B, is B liable to pay Service Tax

Please clarify.

suppose i have taxable service of Rs.45 lacs out of them i did not charge on Rs.10 lacs due to exemption of Rs.10 lacs,so only payable of service tax only 35 lacs or not ? is this my answer right or not

I would like to know the source from where I can see the updated rates of TDS to be deducted. I am an architect and when I recieved a payment, TDS deducted was more around 20% of the payment.

Also I would like to know what all taxes are to be paid by an architect for his architectural services.

As per the latest amendment of service tax if a person is charging commercial rent or consultancy fees for the month of Feb 09 at the end of the month then service tax will be charget @ 10% or 12% or proportionately.

Please tell me.
