Service tax 1.55% on newspapers ad sales

News paper agency charged 1.854% service tax on sales value.. Because advertisement agency charged commission 15%

and service tax charged on it... So 12% of service tax charged on 15% amount of invoice value.. What amount stated in half

yearly return of service tax i.e. in ST-3?

there is no such rate of 1.854% under service tax law.

Meaning while filing the returns, you will have to reverse calculate the gross amount based on the service tax amount considering the same to be 12.36%.

Principall, he is charging ST only on the commission that he has earned.
