Service tax on commission to full time employee on sales

Queries 1012 views 8 replies

For example A is a full-time employee of XYZ enterprises, XYZ pays commission to A for sales of goods of the firm over and above his fixed salary every year. will A be liable to pay service tax if his commission income ( as an incentive from the firm) is over 10 lacs in a year received from the employer. I have heard that service tax is not applicable in the employee-employer relationship and if an employee is a full-time employee.

Yes you are right service tax is not applicable, even if u r paying commission
Commission is a part of salary if employer-employee relationship exists, hence no service tax here.
i am a insurance advisor the co. is deducted service tax &tds both from my commission is it right why service tax?
Commission paid is still a salary. And only income tax is chargeable. Service between Employer employee is not covered under Service definition.

service tax is exempt by virtue of section 65B(22). no service tax shall be payable in case of any service provided by employee to its employer in raletion to employment.

If there is no employer-employee relation between you and your company, then service tax will be applicable. If your company provide you salary, there will be no service tax applicablity.
