The service tax is to be charged on the gross value of service provided or to be provided which is the value of Rs. 1,00,000/=
However, in the instant case there is a recovery of an amount of Rs.35,000/- by the principal from the agent on his commission due to non-payment of the dues by the customer of the principal.
In my opinion it cannot be possible to term the recovery amount as reduction in the consideration payable for the service rendered rather it is a indemnification of the loss by the agent to the principal for the non payment of the customer.
Therefore the service tax has to be paid on the whole amount of Rs.1 lakh both prior and post 31-3-2012.

But as a del credere agent, the commission is due to the agent only after he ensures that his services related to the payment by the customer to the principal is completed. So as per the terms of agreement, the commission is due to him only if the customer pays to the principal in time and if any default is committed by the customer, the same would be reduced from the commission payable to the agent
