Dear Sir,
There is a contractor and he is not liable for VAT registration because he provides only labour for construction purpose.
Suppose he is proprietor of his firm and his own name is Ram Singh and he has put the name of his firm as Star Construction. Then he would obtain service tax registration in the name of Ram Singh
or
in the name of Star Constructions?

Please advise me.

good afternoon every1,
i had a small doubt regarding availing service tax credit. when can a service provider use his input tax credit? can he use a tax credit without receiving the service tax just by raising the invoice or he has to receive the service tax amount?

I have following doubts:

1. Is service tax applicable on commission income (commission on Sale of Fabric)

2. Income crossed 10 lacs last year, but this year it is expected to be low. So should service tax registration be taken?

3. If Income last year was 13 lacs then how much service tax to pay this year?


Please help to solve my doubt.
