19 August 2007 The liasioning work for certain approvals from govt. departments such as EXPLOSIVES , BOILER AUTHORITIES, MUNICPAL/STATE GOVT. AUTHORITIES ETC is done. The receipts for these services includes certain out of pocket expenses expended at the offices for which no proofs are available .

If a person renders these type of services under what head of service he will be covered?

What will be the fate of expneses incurred as mentioned above?

The constitution is a partnership and doing erection & commissioning contract for which they are registered under service tax
