There is a Manufacturing Company. It is registered under Service Tax under Transport of Goods by Road Category. It avails cenvat credit of the services received & utilizes the same against it Excise duty liability. It has it registered office & manufacturing facility at the same place. The billing is also done from that place only. But it has various offices in other states & locations also. Billing is not done from those other offices & location. These other offices & locations are not mentioned in the Service Tax Registration Certificate.

My question here is whether the company can avail the cenvat credit of the services of those other offices & locations? And whether those other offices & locations needs to be mentioned in the Service Tax Registration Certificate?

Dear Members,



Your expert opinion is invited over the following issue:



“A firm in the business of publishing magazines. Whether service tax is applicable on the amount received against the sale of advertisement space in the magazine”



It may be worth mentioning here that the service of “Sale of Advertising Space or Time” specifically excludes the advertisement in print media. Also according to my interpretation of the law, the above firm does not fall in the category of an advertising agency since it is not creating any advertisement material.



I hope that the learned members will provide clarity on the above issue.

No TDS on purchase / sale of goods..

Hi

Hope you can help me in clarifying calculating service tax for software services in following scenarios:

As an example. Suppose I charge 15,000rs as development charge for making a custom software. My expenses incurred during this service excluding this said 15k, include 3k in phone calls/travel.
1. So, is it that my net profit 15k-3k = 12k is my gross taxable income ? I then have to compute 12k * (10.3/100) as service tax ?

2. If the client does part payment, i.e., he pays 7.5k by march 31st, 2012 and remaining by may 31st, 2012. Do I only have to pay service tax on 7.5k receipt in march ? OR do I need to pay service tax on the invoice in total (i.e., 15k) ?

3. Suppose I calculate service tax on my invoice of 15k and I start doing work as expected. In case the client is fraudulent or is in condition to not pay me my fee. I'm in loss as I've received nothing from the client. but still do I need to pay service tax on the invoice for which I've received no payment ?
