27 August 2013 Your client is providing labour contractor ( i.e. supply of manpower) services to Torrent power. In this case, the partial reverse charge will be applicable. Your client have to pay ST on 25% and Torrent power have to pay on 75%. You can refer Notification No. 30/2012-Service Tax .

The meaning of " Supply of Manpower Services" is "supply of manpower,temporarily or otherwise,to another person to work under his supritendence or control"
