I need guidance on the applicability of service tax on the farm land inside a gated community - the promoter is doing drip irrigation, weeding, manuring and cleaning on a regular basis - the monthly charges is around rs.2000/-

I understand any charges in excess of rs.5000 pm and above attract service tax - please clarify the applicability of service tax on this case - thanks

I raised this issue two weeks ago but there is no response

Sir,
I have a rented commercial property and my rent is Rs. 30,000/- each to two owners. As my rent comes to 3,60,000 for each person ,I am not liable to pay service tax.But the owner is Architect(with total receipts of more than 50. lacs) and all his services come under service tax thus he charges service tax from me as well.Am I liable to pay service tax under these circumstances

Dear Sir,

We are trader of cell phones and also provide repairing services(our output service) of cell phone. We use courier services for dispatch and delivery of goods. Many clients sent us cell phone for repairing purpose and after repairing phones are also dispatched through courier service.
Untill last year we are claiming input credit of service tax charged by courier co. on their freight bill. This year our CA told us that we can’t take input credit of freight bill since our service is repairing of cellphone and it is in no way relates to our output service.
While my contention is that we do use freight service for providing output service as we are using courier service facility to dispatch repaired goods back to our client. At this my CA’s contention is that majority of amount charged by the courier co. in his bill is for trading goods dispatched to clients and not for repaired goods dispatched (which I agree). As per my CA we are eligible for input credit of freight bill’s service tax on pro-rata basis for repaired goods only.
While as per me it is nowhere written in CCR-2004 that “input credit is available only if input service is used entirely for output service or in case part use of input service, credit is available on pro-basis”. His words are entirely logical and not in legal context. Please confirm me if I am wrong or right in my interpretation also please cite any case law or supporting for your answer.

a doctor having a hospital of 10 beds, wheater service tax is applicable on him

Dear All, I am facing some challenging situation in my office and need your expert opinion. We are a BPO of our parent company in UK in the business of providing temporary contractors to various clients. Now one of the client having head office in UK and a PE in India asked our UK office for a consultant to be posted in India. Our UK office found a PIO with US citizenship suitable for the position and hired him as a consultant under contract. The consultant is providing services in India and stayed in India more than 180 days in the f.y. 2014-15.Our UK office is billing the client every month in GBP and the client is paying from their UK office for the service provided in India by the consultant. We are paying the consultant for his services and expenditures in INR after deducting TDS and remitting the TDS to department, and our parent company is reimbursing the same to us every month.
My question is that whether anyone is liable for service tax at all, if yes who would it be?
