Option 1. On actuals

Labour portion 15 lakhs (Gross value 35 L less Material 18L less VAT 2L) - assuming 35 L is inclusive of all.  

Service tax: 15L/115%*15% = 1,95,652/-

Option 2. On 70% of the value (Since not original works contract - effctive rate 10.5% (15%*70%))

Total contract value  = 35 Lakhs

Assessable value = 33 lakhs (35 less VAT 2L)

Service tax: 3,13,575/- (3300000/110.5%*10.5%)

Cenvat credit eligible on ST paid for repairs services - litigated by department

 

 

 

Alternatively you could compute on exclusive of ST basis.
