Hi,
I am a freelance writer and I undertake writing assignments for my clients. This is my only source of income.
Am I liable to pay only income tax or does service tax also apply to me? I went through the guide on service tax and found that services provided under a contract is exempted on a principal to principal basis.
Regards,
You are not covered in the new concept of negative list of service tax..therefore if your receipts from Writing are more than Rs. 10 L in a year, you will be liable to Service Tax. YOu have to get registered with the Service Tax Authorities once Rs. 9 l of receipts are crossed
