30 August 2010 Construction industry is covered under service tax under four main heads, i.e. Commercial & Industrial construction service, Construction of residential complex, Erection, and Works contract service.
The works contract service is brought in w.e.f. 01/06/07. After introduction thereof, is any option available with the assessee covered by these services, to chose between the first three services as referred above & works contract service.
Putting othre way round is it compulsory to collect service tax under the head of Works contract service?
