There was a contoversy whether Associations working for the promotion of trade, commerce & industry are liable to service tax under service by clubs & associations. Whether it has been resolved?

whether the Input service tax is fully availed against cenvat and service tax paid on goods transport (carriage outwards) is setoff against cenvat

As per India's foreign trade policy as applicable to STP and EOU units these units are exempt from payment of service tax.

Does it mean that one should not charge service tax on the bill amount of services provided to these units and will these services include Rent, Audit fees and other professional services too?
