Banking and financial charges are levied by bank on the inward remittance or negotiating charges, whatever you may address these charges as.
The bank is bound to charge you service charges, which are applicable to service tax, as banks are registered under the said category of services.
The bank is supporting the inward remittance, and they have prefixed charges which are to be borne by the receiver.
Therefore service tax is chargeable by bank and payable by you, however you can take the Cenvat input credit as these expenses are in relation to business.
