I have observed that some of the hotel were charging VAT 12.5% and Service tax @ 10.30% on basic cost of food as mentioned below:
Example:
Lunch costs 36000
Add: VAT 12.5% on Rs.36000 4500
Add: Service tax 10.30% on
Rs.36000/- 3708
----------
Grand total 44208
--------
I have a doubt whether both VAT and service tax is payable on basic costs.
Please clarify whether the above method of charging service tax is correct.
thanks & regards

as per my knowledge, only one is applicable. if you stay in the hotel then service tax will be applicable.

Renting of room/banquates added as 91a in a schedual of service tax from 2007-08.Hence service tax applicable on such receipts.
(2) Indoor catering is exempted from service tax/but vat is applicable.
