Dear Sir,

We received goods by a transport agency via railway. Party charged 100% service tax on bill.
Do we get 100% input on Service tax.

But as per rule only 30% is taxable on railway.
Please assure, do we get Input on material received through rail (through transport agency)

Dipankar

Dear Caclub Members,

As you all aware that service tax on reverse charge basis has been applicable on Ocean Freight w.e.f. 01-06-2016. My Query is, as we're a freight forwarder, we've to pay all charges including Ocean Freight to shipping line to release the container in advance. So, when service tax liability on reverse charge basis arises to us. Shall we pay service tax in advance. If we pay service tax in advance then we've to intimate within 15 days to the department.

Also please let me know that, service tax on reverse charge becomes payable after making payment to vendor. But we have to pay to vendor within 6 months to avail Cenvat Credit.

Prompt reply shall be appreciated.

Thanks
