Since it is a contact for original work

Abatement of 60% in terms of Notfn No. 26/2012-ST

Service Tax is payable on 40% value of gross amount of contract.

Service Tax 14%

Swatch Bharat Cess  0.5%

Krishi Kalyan Cess  0.5%

Total 15% (on 40% value)

The Reverse charge, if any, applicable is to be examined as per Notfn No. 30/2012-ST.

The abatement is as per Notfn No. 24/2012-ST

Sir, Thanks for the valuable reply, kindly also elaborate whether reverse charge is applicable on TRUST. l

No reverse charge is applicable in your case.
