11 August 2013 When a dumb pontoon barge (floating marine craft) is taken on charter service tax is applicable and owner charge service tax.

Is it correct that VAT is applicable in such deals.? If so whether service dept later on demand service tax? Does rule permit charging both VAT and Service Tax?
If VAT is applicable what is the percentage?

If its operation is in your own control(with your men on duty) the amounts received become hire charges and not taxable under VAT laws.Then it is chargeable with ST only...mjk
