M/S ABC & Co. a Partnership Firm is registered in Service Tax department under “ Business Auxiliary Services ” and it is engaged in providing services to the following government education board :-

West Bengal Secondary Education Board

West Bengal Higher Secondary Education Board
Tripura Board of Secondary Education

Board of Secondary Education, Odhisa

West Bengal Board of Madrasah Education.

All the above education boards are under state government and services provided by M/S ABC & Co. are with respect to admission, examination and result procedure alongwith printing of admit cards and marksheet.

In this case I want to know whether M/S ABC & Co. should charge service tax on these education boards and if it is not liable to charge Service Tax then on what basis.

All the above boards are reluctant to pay Service Tax as the board officials says that they are working for secondary and higher secondary education boards and are state government organization.
