I Have started the business of Advertising and given the service to customers and my firm Approx turnover will go upto 5 Lakhs Per Year only. So in this regard i wanted to clear the following points:

1) Do I need to charge the service tax from my customers as I have not taken the service registration.

2) Do I need to take the Service tax Registration if my turnover will approx to 5 lakhs only and whether I need to submit the service tax to department without taking the service tax registration.

3) If i need not to take service tax registration i can give the invoice to my customers without charging any tax because this can have only service tax.

We Are Service Provider liable to Pay Service Tax.

We are Purchasing Excise Paid Materials to use in providing Taxable services.

In above purchase some are for Raw Materials and some are for Capital Equipment.

Can we take CENVAT of Excise Against Payment of Service Tax?

Shall we take CENVAT credit for Equipment 100 % in single year? or 50 + 50 in current & Next year?

Can an assessee avail Service Tax Credit if its Full Name is not mentioned in the Invoice.

For Example : -
If registered Name in Service tax is "ABC Consultants Private Limited" and Service Tax Credit Invoice received is in the name of "ABC Consultants", then can that Invoice be considered as a legimitate Invoice for claiming Service Tax Credit.

Please reply, its urgent. Thanks for your help and valuable time.

what are the rules related to TDS when the services are rendered by the foreign consultant to a society registered in india. in the instant case TDS is applicable or not.
if yes then what are the rules

We are a CHA and also provide GTA services. For providing the service of transportation of goods to our clients, we hire trucks from other GTAs. Now as per point no 22 of the mega exemtion notification, services of hiring of trucks ((a means of transport) provided to a GTA are exemot from service tax.

We however do not charge our clients separately for transportaton but include the same in the "Attendance and agency charges". It is very clearly stated in our contract with the client that we would charge them on a turnkey basis and agency charge would included transportaion.

Now the department is of the view that since we have not charged them separately for transportation, we have not actually provided any transportation service, and that in order to enjoy benefit of the said exemtion, we should have actually provided transportation service. As a result of this, they state that we cannot enjoy the benefit of the exemption and hence we are liable to pay service tax under the reverse charge mechanism.

Query 1: Is their stand correct?

Query 2: Cant we prove that we have in deed provided transporation service by produing the copy of our contract with the client which clearly states that agency charges include transporation?

Query 3: Is there a case law available that can be presented in our defense?

A Company made use of Legal services of a firm of advocates in the month of June 2014.

The company got registered under service tax only in the month of October 2014.

Service Tax liability was not discharged by the advocates firm in the invoice raised by them citing reverse charge liability lies with the company.

The contention of Company is that since registration was done only in the month of October, no liability in their part?

Who has to discharge the liability??
