if you combine material and labour in one bill without differentiating what is material and what is labour and then as per service tax you have to pay on total bill at a composite rate of 4%.
If bifurcation is there then on service you can pay 10.3% and get exemption for the materials.
Designing and drawing charges is correct.

As you said Rs 10, 000 includes both material and labour, the labour portion is also liable for service tax. Further, if you are able to identify the amount of labour involved in this regard then it is not liable for VAT and the same amount is chargeable under service tax law.
Thus, you have to charge service tax on labour portion along with designing and drawing charges.
