Hi Pankaj,

Yes, X is liable to pay service tax as the aggregate payment exceeds the threshold limit.

Yes, X can recover the service tax amount from the tenant irrespective of the fact that individual rent does not exceed the thrteshold limit.

Hi Mr.Pankaj, can i pls know the rent is received against which kind of property?
as regards shifting the burden of service tax liability to service recipient, yes you can recover it from tenants as service tax is an indirect tax whose liability can be passed on to service recipient and it is your statutory right.
