Hello to all. i am a real estate broker and had a query regarding service tax. say for eg., i earn 15 lacks a year. Thus , a service tax of 10.3% would be levied on Rs. 15L on me, say aaprx. 1.5L. Thus, i receive 13.5L as income. now, i pay income tax on the 13.5L, say 30% = 4.05L. Thus, the net amount in my hands is 9.45L. Thus a tatal tax of 1.5 + 4.05L = 5.55L. Is this how it works or do i get a rebate for paying service tax.
