Should an advertising agency charge service tax on the interest charged for delayed payments?

Also should an advertising agency charge service tax on the interest on loan given?

Can you examine from a service tax angle the following proposition:



A Company will contract with local vendor ( contractor) who will provide Human Resources -
These resources will go onsite and work on the Company's client locations -

Contractor will invoice the Company for the cost of resources in INR- local sales

Company will invoice in US$ the onsite Company's entity at cost plus statutory markup- export sales


Questions:

Can the contractor avoid invoicing the Company without Service tax since the resource is working Onsite ( deemed export ?)

Can the Company take duty credit/refund for the service tax paid on the contractor bill, since it will be exporting these services?

Can the Company utilize the service tax paid on contractor bill for adjusting with service tax liability on Import of Other services – ie on Finance Shared Service Centre, payroll etc.

Waiting for an early reply. with good example if possible

A newly incorporated firm is engaged in Advertising Agency Business (i.e. making and preparation). It designs and prints flex hoardings for its clients. It has an annual turnover of around 12 Lakhs.

The purchase bills for raw materials are of 4% and 12.5% VAT items (obviously, the firm had to pay vat on purchase) eg, it paid 4% VAT on purchase of Flex, 12.5% on purchase of clips etc. My questions are:

1. Does the firm, being an advertising agency, need to file VAT Return or Service Tax Return.

2. If the firm needs to file service tax return and charge service tax to its clients, then on what value should the tax be calculated. (Whether the cost of raw materials consumed should be considered for computing service tax or should be excluded...as the cost of all the raw materials cannot be bifurcated precisely e.g. ink used in printing)

3. Can the firm enjoy the VAT input on purchases. If yes, how?

4. What will be the best way to record purchases and sales in the books of accounts (plz give specimen entry)

5. The firm has already got VAT Registration. In case VAT is not applicable, what should be done in present circumstances.

Hi

I have two offices in mum and blr and both are working under the same company name. We have registered both the offices seperately with the Service Tax.

Can we go for a Centralised registration for all the branches under the same company. If yes which section of the Service Tax Act says about that.

Pls let me know. ASAP

A service provider rendering Commissioning and Installation services, charges his customer Works Contract Tax (WCT - a State levy) but not paying service tax on the grounds that Sales Tax is paid. The department says that WCT is not equivalent to Sales tax and involves both material and labour hence wherever WCT is paid service tax is to be paid on the whole contract value after due abatement. ST is not payable only in cases where the service provider is paying VAT. Is the departments view is correct?
