08 June 2013 what is reverse tax mechanism

08 June 2013 1)Normally, service tax is payable by person providing the service.

2)Section 68(2) makes provision for reverse charge i.e. making person receiving the service liable to pay tax.

3)Provision can be made that part of tax will be paid by service receiver and part by service provider.

4)Provisions relating to reverse charge are contained in Notification No. 30/2012-ST dated 20-6-2012.

08 June 2013 Small correction in expert reply.

Service tax need to pay ultimately by service receiver only in any case, not service provider. but service provider is acting as agent to collect the service tax from service receiver and pay to government it is called direct mechanism in any indirect taxation aspects

but in case of reverse charge mechanism, the agent work of service provider is not there. service receiver directly paying the service tax to the government fully or partially for the service availed by them
