Dear Sir

I owned a kalyana Mandapam (Shadi Khana) which is used for Marriages, Functions, Meetings etc., on rental basis with no other additional facilities like catering, lighting, decoration etc., are being provided.

Is the above service falls under service Tax liability? If so, under which category of service is it taxable and the applicable Abatement Rate?

Please Tell

I want to know that a builder/developer can claim input credit of service tax on newly construction. he chargeing service tax on booking amount. he paid service tax to architecture, web developer etc.@ 12.36%.

what is meant by reverse charge mechanism in service tax

In the Case of reverse charge mechanism, if the assessee has received an invoice, say in February but has made the payment on 31st March,than the Service tax liability as per the Reverse charge mechanism rules will arise on 31st March only.
Also, the right to recognize the Service tax paid as an asset will arise only on date of payment of the tax to the department by the service recipient.
In such a case what will be the treatment if the service tax is paid after year end ie. 31st March.
As on balance sheet date there is a liability to pay but the right to claim cenvat credit does not exist.
So what will be the treatment in books of accounts??

Facing problem as follow to uploading the file. :
Uploaded XML structure is not valid, please verify the structure or log a complaint to service desk. In case you are uploading xml from return period October-March 2013 onwards, please make sure you have downloaded correct offline utility/xsd specific from October-March 2013 onwards.
Pl reply

We have paid service tax for 6 services (Like: Works Contract, Legal services, Sponsership etc. etc.) covered under reverse charge from 1/7/2012.

My question is that whether we are supposed to amend our ST-2 before filing the return as we are registered only for the service of GTA at present and have paid Service Tax for 6 services for which the details are to be filled in the return.
