21 March 2014 Dear Experts

Please let me know that if we pay to advocates for :-
(1) daily work as prepare salary, ESI PF etc, Sale tax returns etc for which amount paid on monthly basis under any contract or mutual understanding.

(2) Legal consultancy charges for any case.

Is service receiver is liable to pay service tax on both type of services received or only on consultancy charges paid for legal matter only.
