We are a corporate running office in Sub-leased property at Bangalore. I have the following query with related to service tax as follows:

1. Are we liable to reimburse service tax to principal lessee? Notn.no ?

2. Are service tax is payable by both Principal Lessee and landlord? In this case it will be double payment for the same property. right?

Dear Friends,

Please clarify the following

The assessee is a manufactuing co and not a service provider. The co has liable to pay the service tax on (freight) carriage outward.
1.Is it the co can set off its service tax credits taken for paying the service tax on carriage outward?

2. For the service tax liability (i.e service tax on carriage outward) can it set off against the cenvat on excise on inputs.

Thanks &Regards

URGENT PLEASE !!!

A Company in the business of manufacturing of excisable / non excisable goods.

The Company is paying Service tax to Job Work Charges / Labour Charges for excisable / non excisable goods

Can this company avail the benefit of CENVAT Credit against service tax payable to Goods Transpot Agency. ??

Please explain with rules / section framed under Service tax Rules

(1) X Company provides taxable service to Y Company. In turn, Y Company provides taxable services to lakhs of its (Y)Customers.

(2) X Company did not collect and pay Service Tax (about Rs 4 lakhs pm)to the Department. Y Company was collecting Service Tax (about Rs 6 lakhs pm) from its (Y) Customers and paying over the same to the Department regularly

(3) X Company did not ask Y Company to pay Service Tax. So Y Company did not pay Service Tax to X Company and therefore did not claim credit for Input Tax

(3) Now the Department served a Notice to X Company to pay Service Tax WITH RETROSPECTIVE EFFECT.

(4) For future period, Y Company has no objection to pay Service Tax to X Company since Y Company can claim credit for Input Tax, that is, deduct the amount paid (Rs 4 lakhs pm) from amount collected (Rs 6 lakhs pm) and pay only net amount (Rs 2 lakhs pm).

(5) Now problem is about arrears for the old period.

(6)Both X Company and Y Company want to continue to cordial relations. Kindly advise to get over the problem
