Respected CA R SEETHARAMAN,
Can you please give me any evidence to justify this matter so that even sub-contractor is eligible to claim under 12(e) of notification No.25/2012.
Thank very much for your valuable opinion sir.

29(h) sub-contractor providing services by way of works contract to another contractor providing works contract services which are exempt[Notification No. 25/2012-ST, dated 20.06.2012]
The above entry makes it clear that if the principal contractor is providing an exempt works contract service [for example providing works contract service to Government] then in such case if some part of the works contract is sub-contracted then the sub-contractor would also be exempt from payment of service tax
