1.85% is calculated on 15% agency commission i.e. 15*12.36% =1.85% coz company gets only 15% and hence pays service tax on it only

plz give me a break up of service tax & education cess on advertisement expenses i.e. 1.85%

and the balance of 12.36% is 10.51%, service receiver will be payable or not?

thanks in advance

Genrerally in case of advertising agency it is a practice that 15% of the amount is given as commission. Treat the 15% as inclusive of service tax and pay service tax by back calculation.

Dear Nirav sir,

Please show us any example so that we can understand properly.

Thank you.

Thanks

Please provide if there is any notification on such 15% clause.
