Hi Aadish,
The Tax is payable by the person who is originally availed the Services and not the by the person who is simply making payment on someone behalf.
If a Lady is going for the Service of his Car along with Driver and She left the Car @ Station with the Driver now the Service Recipient is the Lady not the Driver though bill has been paid by the Driver.
Crux; Company not liable though bill has been paid by them.
Thanks
