Hi.

My client has received Consultation Charges in Foreign Currency. Services are rendered in India. I would like to know whether Service Tax is applicable on the same. Please note that this is the first year in which the fees are exceeding Rs. 15 lacs. My client is not going to receive this type of fees in next year. Is Service Tax applicable?

Services are supplied to unit localted in sez. The services are consumed within sez premises....in such case no service tax shall be levied by servce provider

whehter any form / document / declaration should be ontained from SEZ unit in such cases?
whether it is sufficient for the service provider that he has provided the services in sex premises to claim exemption ?

Dear freinds

I just want to know that whether any service tax will be payable on the Freight (both incase of Sea or Air) paid to carrying the goods in India. If yes, who is liable to pay the service tax either importer or freight & forwarder? Further a notification has been issued for the exemption from the pymt of svc tx on Air freight on Import upto the extent of the value taken under section 14 of Customs Act. Further pls provide some valuation rules for section 14 of customs act also?

our company is doing re lapping and retipping of engineering tools which i suppose fall under maintainence & repairs category. Last years billed amount is 3 lacs In current year total invoiced amount of services is 12,91,000 however payments of only 8,63,000 are actually received. Are we liable to register under service tax as payment received towards taxable services are below 10 lacs?

Dear Sir,

But company deduct 5000 Rs due some material damages and paid - Rs 95000+10300 = 105300. so what amount I will paid as service tax. and at time of prepare of ST return which amount will we shown as a turnover 1L or 95000 ?

Also company deduct TDS on 110300 Rs. (As per 26AS)

Hi All!

There were certain ammendments regarding the oenalty provisions of Service Tax, where the maximum limit of penalty has been revised to Rs. 20,000 from Rs. 2,000.

I am filing the half yearly returns of a firm for FY 2009-10 and FY 2010-2011 now, in FY 2011-12, when the new penalty provisions have been put nto effect.

My query is will the ammendments in the penalty provisions be applicable on the returns of previous years being filed now or do we go by the earlier provisions. i.e Do I have to pay Rs. 20,000 as penalty or Rs.2000 as penalty

An early reply will be appreciated as the matter is quite urgent.

Thanks!
