We are in printing business and have our own premises for manufacturing. Apart from printing business in the premises we have given some area of the same premises on rent to an fmcg company and collect service tax from them.

We also give service tax on repair & maintenance of machineries, phone bills, freight inward , freight outward, labor charges etc.

My question is that whether we can take the credit of our business stax to write off the stax of rent of the same premises.

If not, then can we go on taking the credit of the service tax paid on business activities and whether it will go on adding or can we apply for refund anytime.

Hi Experts

Can you please tell me what is the accrual basis of payment and receipt basis of payment in service tax with example.

In manpower supply services , if the service provider charges service tax at 12.36% (i.e at full 100%), then is the service receiver still required to pay 75% of the service tax ?

Dear Sir,
