Hii,

Where Service provider is a Works Contractor and Service receiver is Non business entity (Trust), Reverse charge mechanism is attracted since it is works contact. 50% is paid by service provider and same is recovered from service receiver. However Service receiver being a Non business entity is not required to pay the balance 50% of tax to the government. In such case who is the person liable to pay the balance 50% of service tax.
