Hello, I have a query relating to service tax and excise. It is practical case study but I don't want to disclose any name.
Suppose, I have coaching classes of mine in which I've employed some professors and what I do is record the lectures given by professors in a pendrive and sell it to students. Now my question is will this attract Service tax as I've provided service or Excise as the lecture in the pendrive got manufactured in my premises and outward in order to sell it to students???
Need some clarity as regards to excisable goods and levy of service tax..

Dear Experts,

The assessee is filing service tax return on receipt basis. In current year, he received fees outstanding for previous year on which he paid service tax and filed return for the first half year of FY 2014-15.

His total fees received in the previous year was less than 5 lacs. In current year also he has received less than Rs. 1 lac uptil now which was pertaining to services rendered in previous year.

Due to indifferent health, he is providing services only occasionally and may receive some fees which will not be beyond the threshold limit. He has recently given his residential flat on Leave License from which he would be receiving rent of appx 12000 p.m. Is he required to amend his certificate for rental services?

Should he continue to register with Service Tax, can he claim basic exemption in his second half return?

Or he should surrender the registration certificate? If he surrenders, is he required to file service tax return till the time cancellation is done by the Department?
