Hi,
I wanted to know that service tax reduction to 10.30 % is effected from 24.02.09 but if i raised bill after 24.02.09 on which service is already rendered in january then at what rate bill is to be raised?

how i have to raise the bill for material and service in composite billing? is there any concessional rates available in composite billing?

Dear Haresh,
In such a case billing will be consider as inclusive of Service Tax and Service tax is payable as below:
Billing Amount/(100+ST rate)*ST
-----------------------------------------

I think the liability to pay the service tax arises only when the supplier is registered under service tax. Secondly, it should be mentioned on the bill as " inclusive of service tax".


Pl correct if I am wrong.

Our firm is providing After sales services to Indian Customers for a firm based in USA who exports their machines to Indian Customers. Our firm claims reimbursement towards expenses incurred by our Engineers like travelling, salary, conveyance, proportionate office rent etc. and a 5% commission on the total expenditure incurred (which is basically our margin). Will the whole amount will be applicable for service tax (Including reimbursement amount) or only commission amount? Pls. Clarify. Thanks for your response.
