RESPECTED SIR

WE ARE A BUILDER. WE HAVE GIVEN OUT A CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTING COMMERCIAL COMPLEX TO A CONTRACTOR. WE WILL BUY IN OUR NAME & PROVIDE HIM INPUTS LIKE CEMENT, STEEL, SAND ETC. ETC.
THIS CONTRACTOR GIVES US HIS BILL FOR LABOUR ONLY AND CHARGES FULL SERVICE TAX. WE PAY HIS BILL INCLUDING SERVICE TAX.
NOW PLEASE GIVE ME YOUR VALUABLE GUIDANCE ON FOLLOWING :
(1) CAN WE TAKE CREDIT OF HIS SERVICE TAX AND ADJUST IT AGAINST PAYMNET OF SERVICE TAX COLLECTED BY US ON RECEIPT OF INSTALLMENT AGAINST SALES FROM A CUSTOMER ?
(2) COMPLEX IS NOT YET COMPLETED AND ALSO WE HAVE NOT OBTAINED 'COMPLETION CERTIFICATE' FROM THE COMPETENT AUTHORITY. BUT STILL BOOKING OF SPACE IS GOING ON AND WE TAKE PART PAYMENT FROM THE CUSTOMER AND ALSO SERVICE TAX AMOUNT @4.35% (30% OF 14.50%).
(3) SINCE, WE HAVE SUB LET THE CONSTRUCTION WORK TO A CONTRACTOR, ARE WE THE SERVICE PROVIDERS & ( RESPONSIBLE FOR COLLECTING SERVICE TAX )TO THE CUSTOMERS WHO BOOK THE SPACE & MAKE THE PAYMENT TO US INCLUDING SERVICE TAX ?

WAITING FOR YOUR VALUABLE GUIDANCE

An american national having a proprietory firm in USA is also a director and share holder of a Indian Pvt Ltd Co. providing IT Services. If the Indian company provides any services to the US company of the director and the US Company in turn sells those services to his clients in US , will the services provided by the Indian company will be considered as Export. Is the transaction liable to Service Tax.

Experts,
The case is:
A client provides AMC for electronic components. His service also covers replacement of parts , if and as required. He charges bill amount comprehensive of both these services.

My query is, if VAT should be charged (beacuse of replacement of Electronic components) or Only Service Tax (bcz of service provided), or is it proportionate>>???


PLEASE ALSO PROVIDE ANY CASE LAW / SUPPORTING / PROVISIONS .


Thanking you,
