13 April 2012 Please advise which insurance company you are referring to.

Else, generally the service tax with cess is calculated on the premium that is being paid.

16 April 2012 Dear Mr. Dsouza,

I was referring to Kotak Mahindra Old Mutual Life Insurance Co. Ltd.
But i think service tax calcultion norms should be same for all Life Insurance Companies and only the product category e.g. Protection Plans, Conventional Plans or ULIP Plans, can make a difference in Service Tax Calculation method.

Please Suggest.

Thanking You.
