14 March 2016 My client has developing a commercial & resident complex. They are taking advances from client who book their shops or flat in that complex. So my question is whether service tax is applicable if any customer booked their shop or flat ? if yes then how much rate will apply ? and how to do exact calculation from taking advances to final payment complete calculation ??

thanks in advance for your valuable time and help

14 March 2016 The activity comes under 'works contract service' and accordingly ST @ 14.50% has to be paid on 40% of the amount received periodically.
