For the Trust providing professional education and training to government officers (like judges, police), and charging fees for accommodation, food, and registration, the appropriate service tax category would be:
"Commercial Training or Coaching" (Service Code: 999293)
Why this category? The Trust is engaged in imparting education/training, not in construction or works contract. The service provided is training/education which falls under Commercial Training or Coaching Services. Charges for accommodation and food are incidental to the training service. Additional Points: Since the Trust is not a government body, it does not qualify for exemption as a government educational institution. Income from these activities would be taxable under service tax under this category unless specifically exempted.
