With my limited knowledge I said we have tom deduct 2.666% TDS and contractor need not charge ant Service Tax

Please advice / clarify

As the above query is solved the reply is as follows:-
Expenditure incurred by service provider on behalf of the service recipient and reimbursed to the provider can be deducted from the value of taxable services(including the said exps.)only if the service provider is acting as a pure agent of the service recipient. Other wise gross amount(including reimbursed amount) is liable for ST. Pl refer explanation(1) to rule 5(2) and CBEC circular F.N0.B1/4/2006-TRU

Explain mening of pure agent and explain the above with help of example.....please

Dear All

In case of a telecom company, is service tax applicable on cheque bouncing charges recovered from a subscriber?

Late Payment Fee has been expressly excluded from the purview of Service Tax in case of telecom companies since no telecom service is rendered vide a ST circular.

Can similar stand be taken for Cheque Bouncing Charges?
