Dear Sir,

I want to know, if a firm run his business and having 3 to 4 services like banking and financial services, Share broking terminal, Investment in Mutual fund etc. then limit of service tax [Rs. 9 lacs] is applicable when gross turnover of all services cross the limit or individually i.e. rs. 9 lacs each.

My client books hotels for its customers. Some hotels charge luxury tax as well. My client after adding its commission tells the total package amount to its customers. Now the question is whether service tax is to be charged on the total amt including luxury tax or on basic amt+ only commission. For eg

Basic-4800
Luxury tax 100
Comm 100.

So service tax on 4900 or total 5000??

What is the interest for delay payment of service tax

We are a manufacturing company wherein we receive transportation services of more than Rs. 6.00 crore.
There are two queries
1. What will be the taxable point? The point when the transportation aganecy raises the bill or the time whne we make the paymet.
2. We give some advance to the lorry driver and the balance amount is paid by the customer on our behalf which is further adjusted from our payment. Now the customer is deducting service tax on the balance amount paid and adjusts from our account. Is the customer right while doing this, if yes, then how should we account for it?

Please advice

Sir

I know & confident that ST should not be calculated on the consideration received in KINDS ie other than cash, it should be calculated on CASH amount.

In Nagpur one of the CA faculty, taking tuition Calss of CA Final, said that Service Tax should be calculated on BOTH ie on CONSIDERATION RECEIVED IN CASH & KINDS......

can you tell me what is correct?

3) M/s. P & Co. Ltd. is manufacturer of storage tanks made of iron and steel
which is liable for excise duty. M/s. P & Co. Ltd. is registered under Central
Excise and charges/collects appropriate excise duty on the same. M/s. P &
Co. Ltd. have appointed Mr. R, a fabricator to carry out the work of
electroplating on the said storage tanks. The said process of electroplating
does not amount to manufacture within the meaning of Section 2(f) of the
Central Excise Act, 1944 and Mr. R accordingly has charged service tax on
the labour jobwork charges collected from M/s. P & Co. Ltd. M/s. P & Co.
Ltd. is of the opinion that the service tax is not leviable on labour job work of
electroplating done by Mr. R since M/s. P & Co. Ltd. is discharging their
excise liability on final product i.e. storage tanks. Kindly advise Mr. R.
