We are running a chain of restaurants and all our restaurants are on rental basis. In a single premises we are having both air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned restaurant with clear demarcation. My question is our internal auditors are objecting that for air conditioned restaurant you are collecting service tax on abatement and for rent also to that proportion only you have to take input. Since Non air conditioned restaurants you are not collecting any service tax you are not eligible for input. My contention is, since both AC and NON AC restaurants will come under one company, I cannot segregate and also for the services the entire service tax paid is taken as input and the same rule is applicable for rent also. Kindly enlighten me.

legal service provided by a CA to a business entity whose last year turnover is 8 lakh would be taxable under reverse charge or exempt?

If my service is fully exempt from service tax. Then while filing St return i have two options:
1. Putting the Gross value of service provided as zero for the all six months so ultimate the tax liability will be zero.
2. Putting the Gross value of service provided as actual amount of service provided. Then putting the notification no. under which my service is fully exempt. Then putting the rate of tax for the service as zero%. then also my tax liability will be zero.

But i want to know which way is right to file the return......
