I have given my space on rental for tower installation. Also i have paid the electricity connection and monthly i am charging as per the electricity reading. Can I charge service tax on that electricity charges.


Please advice.

01 February 2012 If you have a service tax registration then you have to charge service tax and remit the same to the government (subject to exemption limit).

However, if you are claiming electricity charges as a reimbursement, then you can obviously claim back what you have paid to the electric authorities.
