Who will liable to pay service tax on legel services

This query is : Resolved 

08 October 2014 Dear Sir,

We have paid the legal charges to advocate firm.

Question is:

1) Who will liable to pay service tax?
2) Is there falling any RCM method ?
3) Is there any limit to pay service tax by the service receiver or service provider?
4) Can we take cenvat credit as per cenvat credit rule 2004?

Pls clarify.

09 October 2014 In case legal services are obtained from individual or firm of advocates by a business entity located in TT(like FCI) then RCM is applicable as per Rule 2(1)(d) of ST Rules.

No limits exists under RCM.

Yes Credit can be taken if qualifies as eligible input service as per CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004....
