Dear all,
I have filed ST3 return of one of our client, who has registered under Restaurant Sale. As per service tax their is abatement of 70% & taxable is 30% i.e actual service tax to pay is 30% of 10.3% is of 3.09% for FY 11-12.
While file the ST3 return for the period of Oct-Mar.12, i am forgot to fill abatement column and directly total taxable amt comes under taxable amount column. The service tax amount i.e 3.09% of taxable amt is correct but service tax officer said that as you have not entered the abatement value, so are liable to pay full tax i.e 10.3%
So, please tell me what to do.........?
i can't revise the return,as revise date also expired...
Please reply me as earliest....

Thanks

Hello Sir/ma'am

I am running an IT firm situated in Chandigarh and having a tough time figuring out if I come under Service Tax for my services! especially after the amendments in Service Tax act in Jun/Jul 2012.

Nature of services:
The service is IT consulting, Internet Marketing and website development.

All the services are provided to my clients in US, France. No services are provided in India(locally).

All the payments are received in dollars or Euros in the form of an inward remittance in my bank account.

Are these services still considered as the Export of Services?
Am I still eligible for service tax exemption.

This question might have been asked a couple of times in the forum already! I am sorry if this is a repeat question but I did try to find an answer by searching the forum and was not able to get a definitive answer.

Thankyou much
Ishan Gupta

Clarification on Service Tax Exemption Limit 10 Lakh :

Service tax turnover of Rs.11,70000 lacs. Please clarify, whether he has to pay service tax on 11 lacs or Rs.1 Lacs (in excess of exemption of 10 lacs).

Basically service tax charged by service provider from service receiver and then liable to pay to the Government.

Assumed that Service provider billing (taxable turnover as listed in relevant notification) for his client as under:-
For Rs. 120000 ( in the of Apr 2011)
For Rs 150000 ( in the month of 2011)
For Rs 200000 ( in the month of June 2011)
For Rs 500000 ( in the month of Dec 2011)
For Rs 200000 ( in the month of Jan Feb & March2012)

Say total Amt. of Billing for 2011- 2012 Rs. 11,70,000/-

In my opinion he can avail exemption limit of 10 lakhs for first year and on Rs. 1,70,000/- he is liable to pay tax whether he charged or not.

Agreed or not?

Your Conclusion Pl. :....................... ?

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have received a bill of manpower supply from a service provider who is not registered under service tax because he is an individual and not having eligible turnover for service tax so he did not charged service tax on the bill and as a service receiver am i liable to pay service tax under reverse charges mechanism or not.We are a pvt ltd company and also registered under service tax.

Kindly advise

If the director of a company rents his premises to the company will it be construed as provision of services for the purpose of notification no. 45/2012 dated 7th August,2012 and will reverse charge mechanism be applicable to the company on the same.
