Applicability of service tax under reverse charges

Yes, service tax is applicable under reverse charge 

Sir, Can we claim refund from Service Tax deptt.??? if applicable

SERVICE THAT IS PROVIDED BY WORK CONTRACTOR IS EXEMPT FROM TAX BUT IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT ANY SERVICE THAT IT WILL RECEIVE WILL BE EXEMPT . SUPPLY OF MANPOWER IS TAXABLE BUT LIABILTY TO PAY IS THAT OF RECEIVER ALSO AS IT IS COVERED UNDER PARTIAL REVERSE CHARGE.

WORK CONTRACTOR CAN  CLAIM IT AS IT IS  AS INPUT SERVICE AGAINST ANY OTHER TAXABLE SERVICE ( IF PROVIDES)
