hello,

i have doubt on service tax regarding mandap keepers and outdoor catering services.

In case of mandap keepers should vat be charged on the 40% of bill amount or on 100% of the bill and should service tax be charged on any other food items provided during the function which is not in the function prospectus.If other facilities are provided like LCD, mikes etc and they are charged separately can one claim 40% abatement on those facilities or service tax need to be charged on full amount charged for those services

In case outdoor catering if any items asked by the guest during the function n the same were provided like soft drinks, liquour etc....should service tax be charged on those items and can 50 % exemption be claimed on those items.

please reply as early as possible .its urgent

thanking you
