Can a tenant(Pvt.Ltd.Co.) deposit the Service tax on Rent payable by it to the landlord (again a Pvt.Ltd.Co.) under the provisions of Service Recipient? That is, that can a tenant deposit the service tax under its own name & service tax code & file the return as a Service Recipient? (Like we do in Goods transport agency)
In my point of view, it isn't possible, but, what should we do if the landlord isn't agreeing to comply with Service tax provisions?

The tenant is NOT responsible for depositing service tax.
The liability of collecting and depositing service tax is on the landlord and not on the tenant.
If the landlord does not comply with the provisions of service tax, he will be held liable for the default.
The tenant will NOT be held accountable for the default.
