Yes. the company's liability is independednt of the liability of the vendor as per the new mechanism. therefore, co will have to pay the 75% service tax.

Sir what if the service provider paid to the goverment as he had collected from us? And also they have charged full service tax amount from us?

Even if service tax has been paid by service provider. It is liability of service receipent to pay st. It is very clear that service receipent can not escape from his liability on the ground that tax had already been deposited by service provider
