Service tax

Tax will be on Rs. 50,000.Since,tax is paid only on money received and not on bill raised..

Plese refer Point of Taxation Rules, 2011 from undernoted table.  It is self explanatory :

Now service tax on Invoice Basis. 10.3 % on 8 lakh

service tax on receipt basis is no longer applicable except for certain specified services. for the rest it is as per point of taxation and in case of advance it is always taxable on inclusive basis so service tax will be calculated on  844850(50000-10.3%)

Sheena is correct. After introduction of Point of Taxation Rule, tax liability arises on accrual basis.

@ gaurav--2thngs i want to mk clr that 50000 is difrnt from bil raised nd m askng abt tax liablity not tax paid.

@ sheena nd CA unnikrishnan---is 844850 corct?  nd cn i assume that 800000 is also inclusive of tax nd 850000 is taxeble??

bscly i knw dat advanc tax rcv is olwz inclusive of tax...que is abt amt of bil raised....if nthng said thn what to assume???????

lyk in abv que---50000 is inclusv of tax bt wht abt 800000??

if nothing is mentioned we usually assume tht 800000 would be exclusive of tax so tax would be charged on 844850. however u can assume 800000 is also inclusive of tax and tax would be charged on 765000 i.e. 850000-10%....in both cases you will have to write your assumption in a note.

thnx dear  :)

I think, if Rs.50000 is different from bill raised of Rs.800000, there should be another invoice against which advance of Rs.50000 is received or it may be the case that the invoice is of Rs.850000 from which Rs.50000 is received as advance.

For exam purpose, advance should always be assumed as Inclusive of Service Tax and for remaining 800000, any assumption is allowed, i.e., inclusive or exclusive.

Practically, 50000 will be taken as inclusive of service tax and no need to make any assumption for 800000 as the facts can be ascertained.

Suggestions and corrections are welcome.
