Dear Experts,
We are already registered with Service tax under maintenance & repair.
We have also rented two premises for Rs.20000/-pm and Rs.30000/-pm each.
Whether we have to charge service tax to our tenants? If yes, under what head should we register?

As per the changes brought in Finance Act'2010, you need to charge Service Tax. The category is "Renting of immpvable property Service".
It is advisable to deposit the tax under protest, since, the jurisdiction of the Central Government to levy the tax is likely to be challanged sooner or later.
