We are employing  Our own labour which works under our supervision and not under supervision of principal contractor.as par Rule 2(g) of Service Tax rules, inserted w.e.f. 1-7-2012 it is not manpower supply.then under what head should we charge service tax?

Check it out, if the work is a pure labour contract or not?

If it is pure labour contract, then the said work will come under "erection, commissioning & installation service".

If it is not pure labour contract, which means, if it involves use of any material which is subject ot VAT and transfer of the same as a part of the contract, then it would be a "Works contract". If it is a works contract, you may pay service tax at a composite rate. However Cenvat credit on imput used is not available.
