Dear Manoj,

Govt Is Considering 40% Of The Food Sale As Service Portion, So Only For 40% Of Sale + Service Charge Is liable for Service tax.

For Easy Computing It is Commonly Use As

100 x 40 /100 = 40

:- 40 x 12.36 % Service Tax = 4.944%

when u see 4.944% ST on 100 % of sale + Service charge u might have think st is on 100 % Of Sale

For eliminating Doubts Please Refer Below,
