My clint is a MSO company providing cable tv services to various cable operators in state of  MP .  Company is   Charging broadcaster ( Like Sony tv , zee , star)  a fees called " Carriage Fees" for  running their channel on a particular band. I have read  taxable service head " Cable operator" but in that head   nothing has been said about this service. How ever company is charging for this service including service tax. Pls  suggest  whether it's taxable under service tax or not ?
