Dear Kaushik,
If the services rendered by an Engineer involves replacement of any part or sale of goods then the activity will be treated as Works Contract. On the otherhand, if the services rendered involves no transfer of property (or sale) then it is purely service and would not fall under Works Contract.
Therefore, if the activity is a works contract then tax is payable on 70% of the invoice value i.e. (12.36% on 8400).
No, the service receiver will not be liable to pay tax on balance 30% of invoice value.
However, if the service provider is an individual or a partnership firm then it is advisable to refer Notification No. 30/2012 for ST payable on reverse charge basis.
