Service tax on construction services

Hello There!

Greetings of the day to all the CCI Members.

If a Contractor Receives the Consideration for the Construction Service Provided by him in the form of Fixed Deposite (Before the issuance of Completion Certificate ) then would this FD amount be taxable or the Interest only be Taxable or both??????

Thanks in Advance.

Regards Rajdeep.

A similar example has been provided in the Education Guide issued as on 20/06/2012.

According to me, the amount charged would be the FD amount as it is the consideration transferred from transferee and not the interest.

Refer, Sec.67 of the Act.
