If in the previous year the assessee was subject to service tax liability(8lacs) & paid the taxes but in the current year his income is below the threshhold limit(below 10lacs), will he have to file the returns and deposit the taxes?

My Client is a printer who gets the order from the publisher for the printing of books and forms. They purchase papers, ink etc. as their input materials and provide the labour and other services for the printing jobs. They are not liable for Excise Duty since they are not manufacturer. They paid Local VAT on supply of paper i.e on theirsupply of material. They are not paying any service tax since in Business Auxilary service there is an exemption. Now, since from 01.06.2007, Work Contract Tax is brought into effect, will their activity in relation to supply of survice will be taxable under work contract? If "YES" on what basis? If "No" why not?

Dear Friends,
One of our client raising service tax invoice with taxable and non taxable items (ie. professional charges, Reimbursement of expenses)

i want to know whether we can raise one invoice with taxable items and non taxable items
or we have to raise seperate invoice for taxable and non taxable items.

please clarify regarding this.

Thanks,

One of our clients get basic raw material from it's customers....they further process the material by galvanising it...hence they get covered under Business Auxillary service...

Now this client has come to know from his fellow job workers in the market that they are paying service tax of 12.36% only on 30% of the billed amount that is they are availing abatement of 70%...Please remember there is no seperate billing, there is only a single invoice raised showing how many pieces galvanised....Their contention is that since alimunium is used in galvanasing the service tax is not payable on such use of alimunium....

Hence i would like to know from you if there is such a provision in the act which can be availed....I am unable to find any such provision and believe that 12.36% is payable on the entire invoice raised.

please briefly define the provision related to the service tax payment of any transport service provider?
