Is service tax applicable for sub contractor ?

This query is : Resolved 

03 March 2008 One of my client deal in construction business as excavation work & hiring work.
Should client raise invoice including service tax? & what rate? His status is sub-contractor in this business and he is tax audit client.

03 March 2008 In present clarification yes even subcontractors are covered under service tax.

He may look into various option under WCT service tax provisions

Kindly keep in mind post 01/03/2008 the % of 2% has gone upto 4% other options there is no change

03 March 2008 Sub-contracter is liable to pay service tax.

There are two schemes i.e. either pay service tax on 67% value or a flat rate of 2% (now 4% from the date to be notified.

If you pay full tax on full value then credit is also available.
