Dear Sir,

I am a Chartered Accountant practicing in Ghaziabad. I have a problem on Service Tax. My client got a works contract in November, 2008 under Kashiram Yojna of Uttar Pradesh Government. The houses constructed under Kashiram Yojna were distributed to poor persons without any profit. Uttar Pradesh Government gave First contract for construction of houses to different development authorities of the districts. Then development authority sub – contract the work to different contractors who constructed the houses. It was said by the development authorities that this Yojna is functioning on no profit – no loss basis and is for the benefits of the poor so no Service Tax is payable on these works contract. That’s why my client got no payment for Service Tax from the development authorities and not paid Service Tax on these contracts. Now, audit team from Service Tax Department came to my client and said that you are required to make payment of Service Tax for the payments received from development authorities under Kashiram Avaas Yojna. You are requested to provide remedial information. I shall be highly obliged.

Thanks

Yours Faithfully,

Sir,

Any one can clarify my query.

Normally the rate service tax is 10.3%. But the advertisement agencies charging 1.8 plus EC 3%, how it is working. Please give any one clarification for this. IS there any abatement portion in this.

Dear Experts,

Namaste!
I have a querry regarding CENVAT credit.

We are manufacturer of excisable goods and provider of taxable output services.
We are importing services and depositing (cash)service tax on those services on reverse charge mechanisim.

My Q. is could we take CENVAT credit of same service tax, which we have deposited on import of services.

My view is we can take credit on same.Also I have reference of CBEC letter No.345/1/2008,27.6.2008.

Kindly give some reference to substantiate the view.

With regards
