The taxable services on which service tax is payable by the service recipient as per Section 68(2) of the Finance Act, 1994 are specified under Notfn. No. 30/2012-S.T.

Management Consultancy Services are not specified under Notfn. No. 30/2012-S.T, hence the same are not covered for RCM.

 

 

Thanks for the reply. I raised my doubt because as per Notfn. No. 30/2012-S.T Reverse Tax is applicable  ''in respect of services provided or agreed to be provided by individual advocate or a firm of advocates by way of legal services'' 

The defenition of the term legal is as follows : 

“Legal service” means any service provided in relation to advice, consultancy or  assistance in any branch of law, in any manner and includes representational services before any court, tribunal or authority”

So my question is, does that bring management consultancy services under legal services?

Since the services covered under Notfn No. 30/2012-ST are -

' services provided or agreed to be provided by individual advocate or a firm of advocates by way of legal services''
 
so, what is covered under RCM are only "legal services services provided by advocates"  and not "legal service"
