Dear Sir,
One of my client is a civil contrator. Suppose he constrcuted a structure and material cost therein is Rs. 300000/- and labour cost is Rs. 200000/-. Now he draft his invoice a follows -

Materials - 300000/-
Vat 5% - 15000/-
Total - 315000/-
Labour - 200000/-
Service Tax 12.36% - 24720/-
Grand Total - 539720/-

Whether the above format is right or not ?

one of my client is engaged in supply of manpower service and it is agreed between client and service receivor that salary of manpower employed is to be paid by service receivor itself but in month of feb-2013 the salary is paid by client(service provider) and subsequently to be reimbursed by service receivor in month of july-2013

now my question is
- is the agreement valid(since ST is not charged on salary paid)
- is there any service tax liability arise in hands of service provider towards payment of feb-2013 salary to be reimbursed
- if not then can he raise such salary amount in bill not charging service tax

please reply

Dear Sir,

I have a query regarding payment of service tax on Payments received (Cheques deposited but will get clear after 31st ).Do we need to pay service tax on such payments?

Also How do you account for payments received but not cleared in your accounts?

I have a company which is taking manpower supply service under which they are liable to pay 75% of service tax under reverse charge. Now the issue is service provider issue the bills of July, August, Sep, and October 2012 in the month of January 2013. Now what will be the point of taxation as per rules.
Please Provide Solution.

Thanks in advance.

I am paying service tax on invoices raised upto 28th March. Due to holidays balance invoices will be raised on 1st of April so do I have to pay service tax in March itself though I have raised invoices in time (within 14 days)
