Hi,

Can anyone kindly confirm me that whether I should have to pay service tax on the crossed limit only in the current year, if my PY turnover is less than Rs.10 Lakhs or on the entire tranxs amount. i.e., my current year service turnover would be around Rs.15 lakhs, now will it be enough if I pay service tax only on the extra 5 lakhs or should I have to pay on entire 15 lakhs. Plz suggest.

In one forum, i had seen that for transactions that went upto 12lakhs, paying on extra 2 lakhs is enough but if it crosses 12 lakhs then one should pay on the entire transactions amount with out any exemption of 10 Lakhs. Is it true?

And is it true that my service, where I supply manpower from helpers to computer operators to a Govt. organization comes under "Manpower Recruitement & Supply Agency" category.

Thanks in advance.

if the service tax provider enjoys the tax credit on input services or capital goods then he has to pay from zero otherwise he can avail exemption upto 10 lacs.

Yes its taxable service.

Thanks in advance.

i'm trying to register for Service tax online through ACES but in it, in the list of services, there is no service code like, 'Manpower Recruitement or supply agency', only 'Manpower recruitement' code is available.

Are they both same. I basically supply my employees to a Govt. Organisation and charge them monthly.
Do this come under Manpower Recruitement only or 'Business Auxillary Service'. Please clarify and tell me what happens if we pay service tax with a wrong code.

Dear Radha,

You can not utilize the extra service tax paid extra. You need to file refund claim before the authorities under prescribed form R and show that you have not passed on the excess service tax to any one as credit ( satisfy on unjust enrichment)

If the authorities are satisfied with your submissions then they might allow you to utilize the same amount in the next year.
