Our company is pur chasing software from microsoft through dealer HCL. they are billing both service tax and VAT.
My query is
1. since service tax is applicable due to dealing between OEM and HCL and HCL is liable as service recepient, why our company at all should pay servicer tax on gross contractual value.
2.VAT i understand is applicable as licenses in physical form received
3. can our company pay the differential service tax ie. differcne between service tax claimed by HCL and service tax actually paid by HCL as service recepient

dear Sir,

I have given discount to my client and raised Credit Note.....

Now can i reduce that value while paying Service Tax.........?

Where should i mention in the ST3 return....?

The assessee is engaged in Business of trading yarn.
It also engages in Consignment sales wherein it receives 1.5% of value of sales as commission.
However, it bifurcates the commission into two parts-one being commission and other as cash discount (50% each)
The purpose for doing so is to avoid crossing service tax threshold limit.It is not registered under any service category at present.
My query is what is the category of service for such consignment sales made through Principle-agent relationship?

Dear Sir/Mam,

If we noticed while auditing books of accounts for F.Y. 12-13, that Service Tax which was not booked in the books of accounts however charged in the Invoice & received by the client for F.Y. 2010-11 and rectifed the accounting entry in the F.Y. 12-13.

Because of above situation Service Tax liablity @10.30% of sale of service Value arises in the F.Y.12-13, which idealy should have been paid & considered ST-3 in F.Y. 10-11, which is actually not paid & considered.

Can we now considered in the ST-3(Return) for F.Y 12-13 & pay S.T. liability??

If no, then what to do, as revision of S.T. return for the period F.Y. 10-11 is also not possible??

Thank

Regards
Ashwini
