Hi All

Is it necessary to make payment to the service provider before availing the credit of service tax of any input service?

Kindly provide reference to any notifications/ circular etc. in support of your answer.

Hi i just had a query on Service tax filling. Following are few of the queries i had in the new form:

1. How should the Premise be Registered? Is there any seprate registration number or we can use the STC number?
2. If we have multiple premises can we take set off against the other premises?
3. Same way if we have multiple Taxable services can we set off against any of the other services?
4. Can we have set offs between Premises and taxable services?
5.What can be the amount that can be included in money equivivalent?

Regards,
Sumana

Dear Friends,

We're doing trading business from last few years with own unique vehicles (means they can load or unload the same material, we can't mix any other and only one way with load and return with empty).

i.e., we're purchasing material from manufacturing unit with our own vehicles and delivery to customer place with the same vehicle. And we're billing for the unloading or acknowledged quantity measured by weighment at customer place. And we're not showing any transportation in the bill, since it was delivery on FOR basis as per customer purchase/supply order. And at the same time, we're charging penalty for waiting/delay charges for not taking the material immediately after sending the vehicle. This was mentioned in our offers/purchase/supply orders.

Now, the thing is that this Service Tax authorities are asking us to pay for ST on this penalty, which was charging on waiting/delaying the vehicle. We're putting this to release the vehicle immediately by taking the material from the vehicle and trying to do more number of trips and gaining from it. If it was delaying we can't get more from that vehicle.

And also asking us to show transportation
separately & pay on transportation.

So, kindly give us a good suggestion from all of you.

Thanks
