Hello All,
Can you please help me with your expert advice on the following? :
My company is installing a pipeline and related other plants & machineries for transportation of chemicals. Pipes have been purchased for the purpose and stored. The installation process has just started and operationalisation of the plant including the pieline will take at least one year.
After operationalisation service tax will be applicable transportation charge for "Transportation of goods through Pipelines".
Please advise me -
(1)whether CENVAT Credit for ED paid on pipes and other plants, Srvice Tax paid to Project Consultants and other service providers for implementation of the project will be available for adjustment against Service Tax Chargeable on Transportation Charge?
(2)If so, what records and in what format do I need to maintain to satisfy the central excise/service tax authorities to avail CENVAT credit?
(3)When should I claim the CENVAT credit and what is the procedure for the same?
(4)How should I treat the ED and Ser. Tax paid during construction activities in my books of accounts for claiming and utilisation of CENVAT credit? Can you please suggest me appropriate entries in the books of accounts?
It will be a great help.

Thanks & regards,

Aditya

One of our client had branches all over India, having different Service Tax Registration. Now the company wants to have centralized registration in New Delhi Head Office.
Kindly tell (as per service tax act/rules etc) that the cenvat credit standing in all the branches & HO will be transfered to the new Centralized registration?

Sir,

We are an Indian company representing a foreign company (which is a TV service channel)in India since 2008. The only service that we provide them is to inform the public in the Indian territory of their TV service and make them aware of the TV channel.
Uptil now we have not been paying any tax. In order to save ourselves from the levy of tax, can we say we are exporting our service?
Also, under which category of taxable service will we be covered?

Our firm is engaged in Commercial Construction Business. During the course of business, If wish to make some contracts with different contractors for the following works each of them is below Rs. 9 Lac:

1. Electric fitting labor charges worth of
Rs. 600000

2. Bore expenses with submersible pump
Rs. 250000

3. Coloring work only labor Rs. 500000

4. Plaster work only labor Rs. 750000

Now my queries are

In this case whether the firm will be liable to pay service tax or the different contractors as no one individual service is exceeding Rs. 10 lack ?

If the firm is liable to pay service tax whether it will be restricted to above work done through others or on all labor works which are got done employing direct laborer

Whether the provisions of circular No. 332/35/2006 dated 01-08-2006 can be applied to this service also ?
