Regarding **service tax on performance guarantee** in the context of your quarry:
---
### What is Performance Guarantee?
Performance Guarantee (PG) is usually a contractual assurance given by a party (like a bank or guarantor) to ensure the completion or performance of certain obligations.
---
### Service Tax Applicability:
* **If the performance guarantee is provided by a bank or financial institution** (like a bank guarantee), **service tax is applicable on the commission or fee charged for issuing the guarantee**.
This service falls under the category of **Banking and Financial Services** and is taxable.
* **If the performance guarantee is given as part of your contractual obligation (without charging a separate fee or commission), then no service tax is applicable on the guarantee itself.**
* If you, as a quarry owner, are receiving a performance guarantee from someone, it does not attract service tax on your part unless you provide some taxable service.
---
### Summary:
* Service tax applies **on the fee or commission charged for issuing performance guarantee by banks/financial institutions.**
* No service tax on the guarantee itself if given without consideration.
* If you provide a guarantee service for others (charging a fee), then service tax may apply on that fee.

If you want, I can help you with detailed references or sample clauses. Does that help?
