hi

my company is having a sale agent in srilanka who does sales on our behalf . he remits the entire  monry recd thru sales to us in india.

he then raises the debit note to us for his commission amount.

then we remit the money to him directly in srilanka to his bank account thru TT or any other means.

now is my company liable to deposit service tax on this amount in india as my company is then importer of services

Hi,

Refer to this link this might help you..

/articles/article_list_detail.asp?article_id=470&article_title=Liability%20of%20Service%20Recipient-%20An%20overview

The liability to pay service tax is reversed towards the service recipient under the reverse charge mechanism and the credit for the same can be considered.

Thanks,

 

As per import of service rules... ur company will be liable to charge adn pay to the government.
