In case of civil repairs & maintenance if the contractor provides only the labour are we suppose to pay service tax on the invoice amount charge to us on labour rate? whether the concept of 67% abatement on service tax is applicable here or not?

I would like to know : what is the rate of ST payable now, (present rate is 12%), in case, value of service is received now... which pertains to older period...when ST rate was lower...8 % or 10 %.

ST officer says if you are paying ST now for new or old periods.... you have to pay rate of tax presently applicable.

But I think it is not justified : Supposing I receive commission now of 5 years back.... when ST was not applicable... then obviously I will not pay ST on that. Similarly, if I had charged 8 % or 10 % ST to a company 2-3 years back, and they pay the amount to me now with the lower amount of ST, then how can I pay higher new rate of ST to Govt ??

Please also give govt. circulars / notices if any regarding the above.
