Hi,
I am currently owning a translation agency. The process is I get work from abroad clients, usually from European countries. I outsource the work to the native language experts to get the work done.
To be more clear, i take up german translation jobs from outside India and get it done by a native german. And my import of services exceed 10 lakh.
Do it have to pay service tax for any amount exceeding 10 lakh?
If i have to pay, then i would be paying huge sum as tax. It would be huge if i have to pay income tax and service tax. Please clarify on this matter

Dear Expert

what is tax rate of Service tax and Assam Vat rate applicable in case electrical installation service and supply both we (company ) have received .

I have found one vendor has charge both Service tax @14.5 % and vat 5% both on transaction value(Same value).

I think it is double taxation, and Service tax and Vat can not be charge on same value.

please let me know with reference of section/ notification of service tax and Assam Vat Act

Your reply will be appreciable.

Dear All,
I have just joined a BPO, which is registered with Service Tax Department in Two Categories of service, viz., Business Auxiliary Services & Business Support Services.
We haven't get our registration amended, to give effect to Reverse Charge Mechanism, SO FAR; although we have been depositing service tax payable under respective heads of RCM, but under our regular heads since we didn't have registration under the provisions of RCM.
My question:
Whether payment of Service Tax under our regular accounting codes can be treated as payment under Reverse Charge?
Can we say that it is just payment of tax under wrong head of accounting & it doesn't amount to non-payment (although it is being done for more than 3 years, continuously)?
