10 July 2012 For the year 2011-12 one logistic co. was charging ocean freight to its client higher than the amount actually paid as expense. now my ques is weather the service tax is applicable for that difference amount.

Eg:

Expense of actual ocean freight Rs. 100

Freight Charge to the client Rs. 150

Difference Rs. 50

Now ques is weather service tax is applicable on Rs. 50?

10 July 2012   Shiping Co. is not charging Service tax on Ocean Freight as that is exempt from service tax.  The invoice is in the name of logistic co. ( that is who is charging higher amount of ocean freight from the client.

But the doubt is weather service tax is applicable for that logistic co. for that difference amount.?

and ya... shipping co. is charging service tax on other charges like Documentation Fee, Handling Charges etc.
