Why service Tax is charged on both sale and service component even though a bill is bifurcated into sale and service component by the name of sevice charge?
I dont want a quotation of any srvice tax section,notification or rule.. i just want a logical answer?
For example service tax is charged on both service and sale component in pizza hut bill.

I am conducting audit of a registered private co. during audit I found that co. is not taking credit of service tax which is charged by insurance co. on insurance taken on building, plant & machinery, vehicles. Although co. is a manufacturing concern. so my question is can co. takes the credit and setoff it against output Excise Duty

does an accommodation which is built by government and utilised by its staff for stay when on official duty has to pay service tax on its charges levied for the stay even though the rent for the building is charged by another government department.

2. if yes, then on what portion and at what rate the tax is to be provided.

My client is engaged in Logistic Business. Cent percent of the cargo is transported by Rail.This client has taken a bogie on lease from the Indian Railways and pays lease charges along with applicable service tax at 3.708%.

Query:
Now, the client uses the bogie for transport of different kinds of cargo which includes sarees, newspapers, agarbathi's etc. Newspapers are exempt from service tax and hence the client does not charge service tax to the parties. But however, the client has to pay the service tax on the whole space that he has taken on lease. Since they transport newspapers they cannot collect tax from the parties and hence CENVAT Credit to that extent is not available to him. Can somebody guide me on this matter ?
