Hello,

We are engineering consultancy service provider.

Would like to know whether service tax is applicable on debit note raised on group companies for expenses incurred on their behalf like traveling, boarding, mobile expenses, etc.

Also whether we can charge pocket allowance and site deputation in the same debit note.

As we raise tax invoice for rendering engineering consultancy services as per the contract terms, may be on emi or pro- rata basis. but for site deputation and travel we have to charge separately.

Also suggest whether we should raise debit note only for reimbursable expenses and tax invoice for site deputation and pocket allowance for employees who are on deputation, separately.

One company let X transPorting the goods in local and abroad through C/F agent.C/F not charging any service tax though his turnover is above Rs.10Lakhs.Company also deducting TDS on payment.


IS IT Responsibility of company to ensure that service tax is charged???

Sir,
I wanted to know whether servicetax is chargeable on rent of Immoveble property i.e. Hotel given on lease to run.
Any exemption for services relating to rent on immovable properties.

According to new amendments Service tax is applicable if declared tariff is higher than 1000 per day.

What if for example a Hotel has different class of rooms, and different tariff rates for each. Will service tax be payable on every room even if it has declared tariff of less than 1000 or Service tax is only payable on rooms which have declared tariff of more than 1000 per day.

Respected Sir,

We have client whose company is in process of construction, they will provide services only after completion of construction. But they have registered the company under Service tax just for availing input credit without having any present Output liability.

The respective expenses are capitalized but service tax part of expense is availed as cenvat credit.

Please advise whether the company can accumulate the input(Cenvat) credit for future output liability.Please advise with reference to any Section/Rule?
