Our company is into trading of IT and Consumer Electronic Goods ie laptops, desktop, printers and get order from all over India to supply the product. Before dispatching the goods ie laptops/printer our company uses a polythene ie thinner to cover the product and if box received from our supplier is in damaged condition then uses cello tape so that the same does not get damaged and product is intact. We do not charge anything extra from the customer to cover the product but just as an extra security measure do this activity and incur Packing Expense for it.

Now, a question arises whether this is taxable service under service tax act under the category Packaging Service?

if a firm register under service tax after crossing limit of 10 lac amount of service tax.
how should it pay service tax ?
- on exceeding amount only or
- on full amount from beginning or
- it should pay for invoice raised only after registration ?

As a service receiver, whether we can avail credit on receipt of bill (service completed) from service provider or only after making payment towards the bill.

Dear Expert,
our category of services is "CONSTRUCTION OF RES. COMPLEX" hence we are eligible for 75% abatement as per Notification No. 29/2010-ST.

But in the form of ST-3 (Return) July-Sep, 2012 we could not find the particular Notfcn No. 29/2010-St.

Then how can I put the Notification No.

Pls reply its urgent.

Thanking You,
