29 March 2013 Dear Sir,

One of my client is doing the business of selling cement packs to end users which were purchased from Cement Manufacturer directly. For the bulk purchases made, the trader is rewarded by the manufacturer in the name of commission after deduction of TDS.

Whether service tax is applicable to this Commission received by the trader.?

In case the person who is acting as an agent (who neither purchases nor sells)whether service tax applicable to this activity...?
