03 June 2012 If he is Proprietor i. e. individual then he can claim SSI Exemption.

Clause 37 of Section 65 of finance act 1994 bring dry cleaning service within tax sweep.

There is no service tax applicable on wet washing & colouring services.

Work contract is totally different from the activities of washing and colouring.
Activities falling under the term "Work Contract" are specifically defined under section 65 (105)(zzzza).
