06 August 2013 Since the service recipient is an INDIVIDUAL, reverse charge is NOT applicable. Accordingly service tax liability is on the service provider.
He will charge service tax in his invoice, collect the same from the customer and deposit with the department.

06 August 2013 VAT is always the responsibility of the seller.
VAT will always be collected by the seller irrespective of the status of the buyer/service recipient.
