A building contractor take a contract with material then he is liable to pay service tax and VAT.
Now my query is can he claim input credit of VAT in work contract tax and Excise paid on material in Service tax.
Coz, when he purchase bills are charged with excise and vat. so my query is whether he can take set off vat against vat and excise duty against service tax.

Can we claim input tax of a rented accommodation of the same premises of which we are paying service tax on rent as half of the portion is subleted to somebody else by us and we are charging servie tax from him plus we are also paying service tax of another building rented to another person?

Hi.please clarify...
In a company there is both export and domestic sales.Where as the turnover limit for service tax is Rs10,00,000.
Hence for purpose of computing the said limit whether the export sales is also included?
(Total sales = Rs.1500,000(includes export sales of Rs.700,000)in this case which is the turnover to be considered?)

HI,
i have a client that receives commission from abroad for the orders procured on the behalf of foreign parties.
For this client receives commission in foreign currency.

So will service tax be liable on such commission income??

May Please clarify, whether rate of Service Tax is applicable on the date of amount paid for services rended or the date when services are executed.
For example if services are exceuted before 24th feb,2009 and payment made on 28 th Feb,2009.Rate for payment of Service Tax is 10% or 12%?
