18 September 2012 The debate is going on this ISSUE as to whether company should deduct the service tax from 25000(in your case) OR bear the same (i.e. pay out of its own pocket) Just to stretch it further, is 25000 inclusive or exclusive kind of contract?

18 September 2012 Then it will go by "survuval of the fittest" kind of solution. If you are strong, you will make the company bear the same and if company is strong (which normally the case is), it has already done the correct thing.
