The liability of payment of service tax is of service provider.The law of Contract prevails between serice provider & Service Receipent.If You have raised service Tax Invoice including serice Tax & Party has clearly mentioned that He is withholding only service Tax Portion then you are not liable. But in absence of Such clear instruction you are liable for Propotionate payment on prorata basis.

For example we raised a invoice for service charges for value of Rs.1,00,000 + service tax there on incl Cess Rs.12,360/- The customer paid only Rs.1,00,000/- only by way of cheque and not paid the remaining Rs.12,360/- even after a long time. In this case are we liable to pay service tax or not.

One of my friends company provides service of procuring High value scientific research instruments to the Scientific research Institutes of Govt. and public in India, they are dealers for the Instruments for Principals outside country. The company gets commission from the Principals. Is this commission taxable under the Service Tax. In the Invoices raised by the company use to claim Service Tax but principals not paid this amount. Subsequently the company stopped claiming Service Tax. What is the liability under the Service Tax Law in this context. We are under the impression that we have not collected any service tax hence we are not liable to pay service tax. Please, clarify.
