Suppose Mr A is a providing a service which is not covered under the negative list. FY 2012-13 is his first year during which he starts providing the service. Now suppose his receipt during FY 2012-13 is Rs. 15,00,000.

i.) Was he liable to get registered under service tax and pay service tax during the FY 2012-13 or will he have to get the registration during FY 2013-14.

2.)Now, during FY 2013-14 his receipts are only Rs. 5,00,000. Whether he will be eligible for exemption from paying service tax as he is a small service provider during FY 2013-14?

Sir/Madam,

Company ABC is providing taxable Service from past 3 years but the value of taxable service is below 9 Lakhs in all the years.But the Company has already taken registration for it. The Query is that can the Company claim Small service exemption now?

Dear sir,

Please clarify the following- My company is providing container fright station services while doing that we have to pay customs duty, port expense and container booking etc.. on behalf of my clients for that we are raising debit note - is it required to collect service tax on the above...


please clarify it sir...

early response is very welcommed

Is 60% of the works contract is chageable to service Tax after abatement value.

In case of a builder, at the time of filing of ST3 return builder only filed return claiming service tax which was paid at the time of finalization of service tax case.
This service tax was related to land owners share which was calculated by department.
But at the time of filing ST3 builder only entered payment challan and no any liability to pay adjusted at that time.
this was ST3 for FY 2012-13,2nd Half year.
Now we came into notice that mistake, but no any revision of ST3 is possible.
Then what is possible to rectify this mistake.
Can we adjust this mistake in this half year FY 2013-14, 2HY.
Or any other solution is possible.
Project is completed in oct.13
