I am running a propriotary firm involved in engineering activities. Thinking that I will cross 10 lac exemption limit, I have charged service tax to client so far. Now itseems that I will not cross the 10 lac limit. My question is

1. Do I have to deposit the service tax component to the govt in future?

2. Can I claim refund of the service tax deposited at the end of financial year if I prove that I have not crossed the 10 lac limit

3. This is my first year of operation. Do I have to pay service tax for entire amount? In forum I have read cotrasting opinion about this. Can enybody give refrence to the service tax rules regarding this matter

A group housing society having 100 members is formed.the Haryana electricity deptt. Is supplying electricity to society and raises one bill per month on society for total electricity consumption . The society in turn has each member his own electricity meter and society bills each member on the basis of individual consumption after adding 10 % to rate charged by Haryana government to cover overhead cost.
Is society liable to charge service tax on total electricity bill raised on each member or only on overhead amount charged to members

If a service provider is charging for reimbursement of it's travelling expenses in the same bill in which he is charging for his services, then are they required to charge service tax on reimbursement of travelling expense also ??
If that party raises separate bill for reimbursement of travelling expenses will the situation differ and would it be liable for TDS on only travelling expense reimbursement bill??
