Service tax on brokerage received from cloth merchant

If you are promoting the business of the principal cloth merchant by selling his goods for a consideration like an agency or middleman, I think it attract ST under business auxilliary service or business support service. I think, brokerage as used by you and the context I understand from the post, it attracts ST and the classification is practically irrelevant as the rate is uniform.

i think there is no liability of service tax on you!
