Sir,
A Sub-Contract was allotted to me by a Contractor to Unload The Railway Wagons of Iron Ore. My Labours are not fixed and payment are made to them on Unloading job is completed.
The Firm whose Iron Ore has been unloaded pays the amount along with Service Tax to the original contractor but when the contractor makes payment he says that you are not liable to collect service tax on the sub-contract done.
I "sub-contractor" is registered with service tax.
Q.is the sub-contractor not eligible to collect service tax?
Please reply sir,
