Sir,
A person appies for service tax number in the month of may 2010, when his taxable services were of Rs.4.00 lacs and received the service tax registration certificate on 5/2/2011, when his taxable services were of Rs.22.oo lacs. he achieved the turnover of Rs.10.00 lacs in the month of Oct. 2010. And neither he collects any service tax nor he pays any service tax. My query is
a) Whether he will pay service tax on Rs.12 lacs (Rs.22.00-10.00) or on Rs.18.00 Lacs (Rs.22.00-4.00).
b) Rate of interest on non payment of service tsx.
c) Return of Service tax for the half period ending on 30-9-2010.
d) is there any effect on his liability to pay tax or for submission of return, if he achieved turnover of Rs.10.00 lacs in the month of Aug.2010.

Waiting for your good advice.

In the case of Building contractor who is builder and promoter, constructed the building and sold to us..will it attract service tax and VAT on this contract?

We have taken registration under service tax rules. we have taken the registration expecting that our turnover will exceeds taxalbe limits ie 10 Lakhs. However our turnover for the previous year is only 7 Lakhs. My doubt is whether we are liable to pay tax on 7 Lakhs or whether it is excempted due to non achivement of taxable limit

Dear sir,

Our company is importing technical know-how from Germany.
1. Do the company need to pay R&D Cess @ 5% on import of technical know-how? Are there any exemptions from this levy?
2. As per my understanding Cenvat credit of Service tax paid (@ 5.30%) can be taken. But is it anyway possible to take Cenvat credit / Refund of the R & D Cess paid? Please provide procedure to claim the same

Please provide copy of the R&D Cess Rule, if possible.
