If A is providing engaged in providing the service of "Construction Services in respect of Commercial or Industrial Building" and he is paying service tax & availing the benefit of 67% abetment.
Now, in regards of this services, he is providing 2 types of services.
1. Labor with material (he is billing for total gross amount) and benefit of 67% abetment.
2. Only labor services (No material) in this case he is charging service Tax on 100% amount.

Now, in the Notification No. 15/2004-Service Tax for the said services it is said that
"Provided that this exemption shall not apply in such cases where –
(i) the credit of duty paid on inputs or capital goods has been taken under the provisions of the Cenvat Credit Rules, 2004; or
(ii) the commercial concern has availed the benefit under the notification of the Government of India, in the Ministry of Finance, (Department of Revenue) No. 12/2003-Service Tax, dated the 20th June, 2003 [G.S.R. 503 (E), dated the 20th June, 2003]."
Now our client has got contract for Construction from B, but he will only supply labor for that.
And A has given subcontract to C.
In the same regard, C will bill to A and charges service tax on 100% value (No abetment will be given) and A will bill to B.
In this view, here No abatement is available for three of them.. Can A take credit of Service Tax paid to C???

Dear All,

One company is registered under Works Cont. Service under Composition Scheme. It also sub-contracts part of the contracted work & this sub-contractor is also registered under Works Cont. Service under Composition Scheme.

Question:
1) Whether the company can take credit of service tax paid on bills received from its sub-contractors?

I think it is yes.

Plz clear my doubts.
Thanks

Dear All,

One of my client is providing three types of services. suppose A,B,C. Now individually value of services provided does not exceed basic exemption limit. But on aggregate basis the value of services exceeds basic exemption limit.
So my question is whether he has to take service tax registration or not?
Also I want to know if the once the basic exemption limit for service tax exceeds whether service tax will be levied on the value of the services begining from Rs. 1 or from the basic exemption limit?
Thanks

Dear Sir(s),
We have to raise an invoice against the existing agreement for services rendered on business support, on a Chinese company.

My query is whether we should raise the invoice on Indian currency or USD. As per the existing agreement the calculation is against a fixed percentage on a total USD value.

Please clarify
