This query is : Resolved 

11 April 2012 Dear Sir,
i have a doubt in the applicability of service tax on transportation of milk and milk products and also allied products.

Is Service Tax applicable on transportation of milk/milk products from the factories/milk chilling plant to the consumers/retail/public places
Thanks in Advance

11 April 2012 Service tax will be chargeable on Transportation activities, it has nothing to do with transporation of Milk and allied products.

11 April 2012 Dear Varun,
Notification No. 33/2004-Service Tax, dated 3rd December, 2004 exempts service tax
on taxable service provided by the goods transport agency to a customer, in relation to
transport of fruits, vegetables, eggs or milk by road in a goods carriage.

Hence, Milk is exempt but products made of milk is not exempt
