Dear Sir,

We are provider of crane services in India. We are paying services tax
under “Supply of Tangible good” category. One of our input service
provider (Pvt. Ltd. Co)is providing us service of “Machining” wherein
he reshape some of our parts of cranes as per company requirement (All
raw material is provided by us). Input service provider has gross
turnover of 45 Lacs but does not registered under service tax &
therefore he is not charging any service tax amount in his bill. We
are not taking any CENVAT credit for the same.

Query:
1. Shall we insist him to have ST registration number? Are we
responsible for his act of not registering service tax?

why we have to chage service tax on service charges and pf allowed to employees?
