as per work contract provisions service tax is payable 50% by service provider and 50% by service receiver.As mentioned above 50% is payable by service provider then whether that 50% will be charged by the service provider in the bill means 100% will go out from the pocket of the contractee.

Dear All,

I have one query relating to applicability of Service Tax on the services provided by an Export Buying House as under:

We are planning to form an Export Buying House in India which will provide services to foreign clients in the matter of arrangement of Sample products, quality check and speedy export of the product and in lieu of these services, proposed Export Buying House will raise bill on the foreign client in foreign currency. Since the Foreign Buyer is not having any branch or office in India, the bill will be sent by email to the foreign party and payment for the bill will be made by the foreign buyer within certain period.

My query is that since the location of the service provider is within India, services are provided within Indian territory but the foreign buyer is located outside India without having any branch or office in India, IN THIS CASE, IS SERVICE TAX APPLICABLE ON THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE EXPORT BUYING HOUSE AND IS IT LIABLE TO PAY SERVICE TAX ON ITS RECEIPTS FROM THE FOREIGN CLIENT.

Thanks and regards

Raj

Dear Sir,
I had applied for service tax and received st1 only. As I am unable to ready any other business related documents and fail to submit any document for the same.
Till date the business had not started and not a single documents had been submitted to office. Now an auto generated messages are coming reg filling of returns and my status are shown as active. As I had not submitted a single document within in prescribed time thought to be as cancelled as they mentioned in St1, how can it will be active even though I had not received any st2 or submitted any doc. Please suggest to deal with this issue.
