Mr Pondya,
In this case a catering service is taxable under VAT and ST both. Some times charges are made for providing a service at different place including transportation.In such instances food value will be liable for VAT and exempting the remaining. But ST is applicable for the entire bill value.In some states this may not be allowed. It may be treated as a catering service is not divisible.It means you have to VAT and ST both on the entire catering contract receipts,like in a hotel..mjk

Service tax is applicable on the 50% of the bill value of catering as per the notification of Service tax as under:
Notification No. 24/2012 - Service Tax
Refer:

VAT is a state subject and you have not mentioned which state VAT you are referring to ?
