05 February 2016 Partly agree with the expert.

Collections towards land value is exempted from service tax.

Collection towards land development is a composite contract to provide material and labour for development of land. This would squarely fall within the definition of Works Contract, even though the materil component and labour component may be separately computed. Hence on the whole consideration of land development Rs.4,00,000/- is subject to Service Tax under Works Contract Service. As per provisions as at present an abatement of 30% on the consideration is applicable and under Reverse charge Mechanism the service recipient is liable to pay 50 % of Service Tax. Therefore the liability of the service provider is Service Tax 14% plus 0.5% Swatch Bharat Cess on 35% of consideration received for Land development.
