03 August 2014 If Provider is not claiming inputs
.
.
Abatement can be taken @60%
.
.
So only 40% is taxable
.
.
So if RCM Applicable-Service receiver responsible to discharge this liability directly to govt.
.
.
If RCM Not applicable-Service provider have to charge 40% of service tax in his invoice and collect from customer and pay to govt.

07 August 2014 department persons are asking us to pay service tax on remaining 60% bill amt.We are not claiming cenvat credit

07 August 2014 If you are service receiver then maximum liability on rent a cab service will not exceed 40% of service tax
.
.
If service provider intends to take cenvat credit on his inputs he has to pay balance 60% tax
.
.
Refer reversecharge notification
