Service tax not applicable over any reimbursement of payment like legal fees, water and electicity board deposits, but charged over any such development charges. The reimbursement should be seperately billed.

Thanks a lot Sir,

But if a co. is asking for lumsum amount that is more then reimbursement amount & co. might be making profit out of it, then ST aplicable or not.

 

You can ask for receipts with its bifurcations, but no other alternative.

Dear Experts,

Whether electricity charges attracts GST ?

Thanks in Advance
