Dear Friends,
My query is regarding service tax on Ocean freight
suppose one CHA agent recevied ocean freight bill of Rs.10000/- and Now he make bill to client for Rs.12000 as a Ocean frieght charges . As ocean fright is exempt hence he is not charging service tax on Ocean freight bill of Rs.12000/-
Now Service tax Department is saying cleint have to pay Service tax on differential amount of Rs.2000/-(12000-10000).
Pl confirm service tax Department view is correct and we have to Pay service tax on differential amount.
