We have taken a building on lease for business purpose. In the first year of lease period the lessor has not raised any invoices for the rent and we paid the same based on the agreement and based on the rent receipts from the lessor.

In the second year of lease the lessor came up with a statement showing the service tax liability on the rent of the first year as he went for service tax registration recently.

My argument is one can raise the service tax invoice with in a period of 14 days or 30 days as per recent modification. And one can not claim the service tax for the preceding years from the lessee, even though he is actually liable to pay the same to the service tax department due to having crossed the registration limit and not went for registration. Is my stand correct or not... If not correct why should i have to pay the service tax and file the revised returns for the earlier years.

my cleint registered in service tax 'renting of immovable property ' but he is collecting service tax for both the purposes i.e . renting of the property and amenties provided ?
my query is : - whether he has to collect and pay the service tax for the above services separately if not the under which catogories
highly needful
