31 October 2013 The assessee has hired an advocate for registration of Trademark of Title of Theatrical Work and Copyright of Script of Theatrical work and for drafting documents.
Will payment made for such service attract service tax reverse charge mechanism provisions?
Amount charged is Rs.27000 and payment has been made

Should the assessee pay serv tax as serv receiver?

31 October 2013 If srvice provider is individual or firm of advocates...and provided service to any business entity having turnover more than 10 lakhs in previous year then service receiver is responsible to discharge 100 percent of servicetax sirectly to department under his servicetax registration number in gar 7 challan.

Hence if your turnover exceeds 10 lakhs u have to pay service tax under reverse charge.

Ofcourse tds 194j can de deducted on payment
