This is a case of wrong billing. VAT and Service Tax can't be levied togther on same billing amount. Their should some break up.

Mr. Lokesh,
I agreed your veiw but With the passing of the Finance Bill 2008 by the parliament, "information
technology software service" has come under the service tax coverage. This
has resulted in double taxation issue as software is already taxed under
VAT in AP. We are also aware that there is already a legal opinion of the Hon.
Supreme Court that a transaction cannot be taxed under both VAT as well as
Service tax to the full extent of the transaction value.
So i want to your valuable comment on the above same.

The licenses as per the decision of the SC in TCS case is goods.
Now by bringing a competing entry in ST the Central Govt. has bought this confusion. Some companies have asked the courts to decide either way but not both.
In my view only VAT is payable.
