my client is in the business of arranging tours and international film shoots. He books air tickets for his customers with a mark up on the ticket cost as commission and also charges a minimum amiunt as service charge per ticket. The service charge component will be coming in the bracket of service tax @ 12.36%. My query is whether the mark up charged on tickets as commission will also attract Service tax and if yes at what rate? He is not a air ticketing agent.

I want to know that, A private organisation covered under the Provident Fund Act,1952, have right to not calculate the PF contribution on new joined employees having basic salary more than 6500/-p.m.

and can also freeze the contribution limit upto 12% of 6500/- i.e. 780.00, if once basic salary raised from 6500/-.

Now if I wanna get ATC Certificate have I to register for it and undergo articles again? If yes what is the procedure for the same?
