service tax not there

Dear Sir

Service Tax has been replaced by GST with effect from 1st July 2017. 

As per the new GST Laws, GST Registration is not required if the total of your India Income + outside India income (i.e. export) is less than Rs. 20 Lakhs. Therefore, GST is not applicable in your case.

As far as Income Tax is concerned, you would be required to file your Income Tax Returns. You can claim the benefit of Section 44ADA and disclose your Income as 50% of total.

Yes... I agreed to Ms. Neha Sharma....

 

If Your income is eligible for Sec 44ADA then You can Avail the section...

Hi thanks for your quick response and detail explanation
