24 July 2025 Here’s a quick explanation for both your queries:

---

### 1. **Service Tax on Entrance Fees (Ticket Rs. 10) for Exhibition**

* **Service tax is applicable** on entrance fees collected for exhibitions.
* The amount collected as **entrance fee or ticket price is considered consideration for admission to an event**, which attracts service tax under the category **‘Admission to Exhibition, Fairs, or Amusement Parks’**.
* So, even if the ticket is just Rs. 10, **service tax applies on the full ticket amount**.

---

### 2. **Regarding Flats in Cooperative Housing Societies**

* If there are **144 flats** but **only 121 members** in the society, it means some members hold **multiple flats** (like one with 21 flats, another with 4 flats, and others).

* **How many fees to charge?**

* Typically, **fees (maintenance/service charges) are charged per flat, not per member.**
* So, fees should be collected **for all 144 flats**, regardless of how many flats a single member owns.

* **Why?** Because maintenance cost is usually based on the number of flats (units), not number of members.

If you want, I can help draft a detailed note or calculate fees accordingly.

Would you like me to help with that?
