Dear Expert

I am a consultant , providing , Sales support in India and SAARC for an overseas client

My consultancy charges annually are more than 10 Lacs

I need to understand how much consulting service tax I will have to pay and @ what rate (in %) I take care of my rentals , communication costs and travel within India which is claimed and refunded to me

I have registered my consulting firm (proprietorship) and also have ST number , I operate current account and all transaction take place with current account

I have Home loans and car loans on my name (prior to registration) , can I take any benefits in tax while I am paying the loans ?

Thanks in advance

I am based in Navi Mumbai and would like to appoint a CA who could help me filing this on regular basis so please leave your phone number & email address , postal address so that I can contact in person

Say if a residential complex is being constructed having 18 flats out of which in 14 flats we have had flat booking receipts and other 4 have not been booked. The Construction is completed , now if and when we sell those ready 4 flats would it attract service tax since it was a case of immovable property being sold after being completed".

As far as I have read i came to a conclusion that it would still attract Service Tax since Service Tax is on construction of a residential complex where exemption is given if no flat booking receipts have been taken at all and no flat wise exemption has been prescribed. Please let me know.

Secondly Does Negative list has any impact at all on the exemption being given to residential complexes having less than 12 units.
I have concluded that the exemption still continues.

My question is If I give a contract to a labour for furniture its including labour and material. Does this come under reverse mechanisam ? If so then how will I claim the credit of Service Tax paid by me as I do not undertake any business to take setoff.
Also, Is there any threshold limit upto which I do not have to pay Service Tax in this case ,as in the case of Registration it is 9lakhs(till 9 Lakhs there is no need to take Service Tax number)

if a kalyana mandap collects electricity charges from its customers and pays the same to the Electricity board, liable to include the same in its gross receipts and pay Service tax on it. please suggest answers with latest circulars/notification.
