Our client give services to a Japan based company and issue a bill of USD 5500/- including service Tax for their consultancy charges. The company based in japan give us payment of USD 5500/- fully. However they also deposit 10% of Rs. 5500/- i.e. USD 550/- as TCS in Japan on our behalf.

Now the query is that we give bill of Rs. USD 5500/- and get fully paid. But USD 550/- deducted on our behalf as TCS will include in our income and can we claim TCS. or we should not do the same. If we will do the same than whether we should revise our return of service tax by increasing income of Rs. 550/- USD also.

Please clarify. Urgent matter. Because the profitability relates to it. Subhahs Chander 999 000 3502, 905 089 5040

We are a 100% EOU manufacturing auto components and exporting to USA. We have a payment terms of DA 60 days with our customer and have shipment terms of CIF Detroit. In June 2006, some of our components were found to be rusty and our customers in USA got the consignment sorted at their plant in USA by a third party sorting agency and deducted the sorting cost amount from payment due to us. Since the rust problem persisted, our customers asked us to directly contract the sorting agency for sorting at our customer's plant in USA, all our consignments after arriving in the plant but before accepting the consignment. The sorting agency directly billed us and we paid them a total of almost 37 lacs in 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 periods. The sorting agency does not have any office in india and all the sorting was done in the USA. Are we liable to pay service tax on the sorting service that was provided in the USA on goods that were in USA at the time of sorting just because we have paid for that service? Looking forward to the experts' opinions at the earliest.
