Tour operator

This query is : Resolved 

09 May 2014 my client is in the business of arranging tours and international film shoots. He books air tickets for his customers with a mark up on the ticket cost as commission and also charges a minimum amiunt as service charge per ticket. The service charge component will be coming in the bracket of service tax @ 12.36%. My query is whether the mark up charged on tickets as commission will also attract Service tax and if yes at what rate? He is not a air ticketing agent.

09 May 2014 Yes the commission will also charged to ST @ 12.36%

09 May 2014 Is there any way that he can charge commission and lessen his ST liability?

09 May 2014 If it is mentioned in invoice then how can u change it?

09 May 2014 sir he is not mentioning the word commission separately but including his mark up in the cost of ticket. For eg if his cost is Rs 5000 , he is charging his customer 6000, the difference being his commission and Rs 150 as service charge. Now please tel me if he can avoid ST on Rs 1000. I am again repeating Rs 1000 is not mentioned in invoice separately as commission.
