A FIRM PROVIDING CF SERVICE AND PAID THE SERVICE TA ON THE SAME. BUT THEY ALSO COLLECT THE VARIOUS CHARGES LIKE FREIGHT, TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES AND THEY REIMBURSE FROM THE PARTY AS WELL. THEY ALSO SHOW THAT AMOUNT IN THE BILL AND NOT CHARGE ANY SERVICE TAX ON IT.

BUT THEY SOMETIME MAKES PROFIT ON THAT FREIGHT CHARGES. SO, WHETHER THEY ARE LIABLE TO PAY SERVICE TAX ON EXTRA EARNED FREIGHT CHARGES?
