Dear All,

We are in to spices business, we are purchasing agri product like cumin from farmer and store it into our warehouse. My question is, we are doing fumigation in every month and our vendor (fumigation service provider) is charging service tax at the rate of 14.5%, so is it write or wrong to charge service tax on agri products.??

Hello friends,

I have query related to service tax applicability.

Is service tax applicable to a law firm/lawyer, providing legal or tax consultancy services to charitable institutes like schools, colleges, hospitals, society etc above 10 lacs per annum.??

Kindly provide your opinion on the same. Thank you.

In case of works contract- service tax payable by service provider is 40%(original work), my query is : for example we provide works contract service of Rs. 100,000/- (out of which our liability is on 40,000/- only) but how to show the balance 60,000/- in service tax return. or only show 40,000/- in ST -3 return.
Kindly help us.

Sir/Mam,
Can I register my proprietary firm in back date in U.P or Delhi so that I can show that I have a running business? If yes, then how can it be done? Please help.
Thanks

Dear Sir,
Can you please tell me is RCM applicable in case of LLP? Below is my observation with attached file :-

“Body Corporate” means the meaning assigned to in clause (7) of Section 2 of the Companies Act, 1956 and section 2(1 1) of 2013 Act.
a) Company , corporation and LLP are ‘body corporate’
b) Firm, HUF , T rust and Co-operative society are not ‘body corporate’
c) But firm includes LLP for Service T ax
So, the service tax on reverse charges mechanism shall be discharged by LLP also.

So sir requesting you kindly go through the attached file & give me your valuable opinion.

Sir,

We are Manufacturers and also doing job work for other companys. Shall we collect s.Tax on jobwork charges or not. Pls clarify

Thanks 7 Regards

Dear experts
We are a pvt ltd company and took service tax registration number as well. We are charging our clients service tax in our invoices for our services. Our turnover is not yet 10 lakh. My query is do we have to pay service tax which we collected before turnover of 10 lakhs

A Company paid an amount of Rs. 73945/- to foreign technician towards machinery installation consultancy in India as per their agreements terms with the foreign company.
Company has done accounting entry in their books-
P&M WIP A/c Dr. 73945
Service Tax Receivable A/c Dr 10353
TO Service Tax Payble 10353
TO Foreign Technician A/c 73945

As per section 66(a), Service tax is to be paid by the company receiving service as foreign technician is not having any office in India to provide the service.

My question is why company has debited amount in service tax receivable account. It should be capitalized and should be clubbed with Plant & Machinary WIP Account.

Please guide!
