Sir,

As regards to works contract service,Payment received from clients amounts to Rs.15 lakhs in the same month 20 lakhs paid to individual sub contractor.How can I calculate my S T liability ?

I m small service provider with revenue less than 10L for 2012-13.
in ST return for oct-march, do i have to fill billed amts. if i do so it calculates Service tax whereas i m exempt vide notification 33/2012 S.T
pl guide in filing ST-3

As per the Scheme of service tax no penalty would be levied even for delayed submission of service tax return. I am filling the form VCES -1 and in this form, no place is given to avail relief from penalty for delayed payment. Information regarding default is payment is asked. Now how to fill this form for delayed service tax return.

I have seen the reply of expert. I am confused because the Ministry of Finance has issued a Circular No. 169/4/2013-ST dated 13.5.2013. In this circular at point no. 2 they have given reply that immunity will be given for late filing also.

My friend is an insurance advisor
he sell the insurance policy and against it he get commission from insurance company

the company recently give him commission after deducting service tax 12.36%

so finally we have question that

can this service tax is refundable or not ?
if yes then how ?
the premium commission gross is just rs.5500/- p.a. till they have right to cut service tax out of it??

Dear All,
We are software company, who purchase software from outside India (by online download only). I want to know, what is exact date from which reverse charge mechanism is applicable. As we know same is applicable on invoices raised on or after 01-07-2012 ONLY.

Can you please confirm. Our online import has started before 01-07-2012 so do we need to pay tax for earlier period or not. Any concern notification or case history is appreciated.

thank you

Now whether return should be uploaded under specific service or not and what should i do regarding all payments which are made under code all taxable other than in negative list

Respected Sir/Madam,

Our client was already registered under Works Contract Service and then he amended for Erection, Installation and Commissioning. Now for year ending 31.03.2013 all payments for Service Tax were made under Works Contract Service. Now whether return should be uploaded under Erection, Installation and Commissioning or Works Contract Service.

My client is a sub-agent of air travel agent. That air travel agent receives commission from airlines and pays service tax on that. Air travel agent passes on some part of commission to sub-agent. i.e. my client and collects service tax from him. My question is whether we can claim input credit on that? Whether we have to pay service tax on commission received by us?
