Yes, on Rs. 800(practically difficult) Read more at: /forum/details.asp?mod_id=240599&offset=1 HELLO GIIII, In my opinion the above answer is wrong. Even if all consignments are addressed to a single consignee, since the gross amount charged for all consignments doesn't exceed rs 1500/-, therefore, the same shall be exempt from service tax.

Hi Thanks for feedback

When its in same carriage & 2 consignment.. then total value Rs. 800/- exceeds Rs. 750 limit so taxable, then also you can claim exemption but this would be always disputed bu auditirs..Its like consignment split in to 2 for savin tax liability.

@ VaibhavJ

I got 1 more doubt in that.

All consignment's to different consinee's exceeds rs 1500/- not taxable, unless exceeds rs 750/- in respect of each cosignment will be cosidered.

But for

All cosignment's to single consignee exceeds rs 1500/- will be taxable.(i.e,,,,up to two or more cosignments not exceeds rs 750/- would be benefited for tax for single consignee.)

Plz correct me if iam wrong.
