HI

I have started the work of repair in building, installation of tiles work etc. I have submitted the quotation by specifying total amount to be charged without specifying seperately the value of material supplied and labour charges. i have not signed any contract seperately. The amount is also very nominal like upto 50000.
I have not charged any service tax in quotation beacuse i am availing small service tax exemption.

My question is whether i am covered under works contract??

If yes whether reverse charge is applicable?

Whether i should raise invoice after charging service tax ??

If yes @ what rate?

Pl keep in mind that i am thinking of raising invoice for total amount rather than bifurcation of material used and labour used..

pl revert on urgent basis..

service tax rate at present

If the service provider(Goods Transport agency) is availing abatement then will the service receiver(Logistics Company) be eligible to claim service tax paid under reverse charge mechanism as the input service tax?

I am working in Manufacturing unit. There are many independent Contartor and Registered Contractor from whom we hire the labour. for Registered contactor, we deposit 100% service tax under service tax reverse mechnaism. but for independent contractor we are deducting only TDS @ 1 or 2%. my Question is whether we should pay service tax on labour charges as provided by independent Contrator?

Please teat this matter on urgent basis.
