Dear All,

I am working with a logistic company.

My Co. transports goods from port to port by Air.  We have contract with the Airlines on  commission basis. Air lines has provided it's  Air way Bill to us. This bill is given to the customer on colection of goods to be transported,  Server tax @ 12.36% is collected per transaction / per Air Way Bill on total freight charged.

My Question is, Should my Co. working  as "Agent" for Air Lines, Collecting  goods from Customer on it's behalf & issuing its dcoument (Air Way Bill)  can consider Service tax collectad as Input for its Service tax Return.?

Pls post your replay ASAP.

if you have paid any service tax to airlines, that would be input, 

the tax collected from customer is out output tax and you have to pay the same to service tax department

How can u take the service tax collected from customers on taxable services. Such service tax collected should be remitted to dept within due date.

Only service tax paid on input services alone is eligible to get cenvat credit.
