Dear Members

One of my client - Partnership firm receiving secuirty services from an Agency - Private Limited company.

In this case, whether service receiver is liable to pay 75% of the service tax liabilty.

And if liable to pay the 75%, whether we have to register with the service tax - security agency.

Thanks & Regards

yes the service receiver has to pay 75% of servive tax laibility directly ot the goverment under partial reverse charge mechanism and also has register with service tax department

The person who is liable to pay service tax is liable to get registered under service tax. It holds good for service recipient too.

Partial Reverse Charge is Applicable When Service Receipients is Corporate.

Both Service Provider & Receipient Liablity is Different.

in Your Case, Service Provider Company Will Charge 25% of 12.36 Service Tax Only If They are Not Claiming SSP Exemption.

 

Further Your Liablity is NIL, Read With covered under reverse charge mechanism from 7th

August, 2012 vide Notification No 45/ 2012- ST and 46/ 2012- ST dated 7th August, 2012.

well i think any business entity is liable to pay tax under partial reverse charge mechaism

 

Security agency Service is covered under Supply of Manpower service.

Partial Reverse Charge will apply if a supply of manpower service is provided by

i) any individual

ii) HUF

iii) Proprietary firm

iv) partnership firm

v) Association of Persons

 located in the taxable territory

 

to

 

i) Any company registered under the Companies Act

ii) business entity registered as body corporate

 

 located in the taxable territory.

 

Therefore in your case partial reverse charge is not applicable as the firm is receiving service.

I agree with Mr. Ayush. There will be no liability on service receiver under partial reverse charge as service provider is body corporate.Kindly refer to extract of Rule 2(d)(i) of service tax rules 1994 below.

(F) in relation to services provided or agreed to be provided by way of :-

(a) renting of a motor vehicle designed to carry passengers, to any person who is not engaged in a similar business; or

(b) supply of manpower for any purpose; or

(c) service portion in execution of a works contract-

 by any individual, Hindu Undivided Family or partnership firm, whether registered or not, including association of persons, located in the taxable territory to  a business entity registered as a body corporate, located in the taxable territory,  both the service provider  and the service recipient  to the extent notified under sub-section (2) of section 68 of the Act, for each respectively.
