25 June 2015 Respected,

Our company brought food packet from nearby restaurant 10 food packet at our company. Hotel charges service tax on it @ 5.6%, My contention is that service tax wont be levied as per law as we brought food packet at our premises but hotel refuse it. Whether My contention is valid or not ? can input credit be claimed if service tax paid on in
