The TDS should not be deducted on the service tax because the service tax is not the rent part of landlord and it violates the TDS law. The TDS law states that amount on which TDS is deduted should be shown in Profit and loss Account. But as service tax is not the income of the landlord, he will not show that as income. The service tax will be deposited to the government. As such it makes no sense to deduct TDS on service tax. However, the IT dept is still to clarify the issues defined in circular No.715 dated 1995.
However, if TDS has been deducted on the service tax, then the accounting entry would be
a) Credit Service tax as income
b) Show service tax paid or payable as expenditure and as liability.
This will cover the law of TDS as well.
