Dear CA Ganesh Karthik

Is it applicable to Private companie's Directors also?

 

Dear Sir,

Kindly clarify me in the following issue:

 

Service Tax on Director's Remuneration is applicable from 01.07.2012. However, reverse charge mechanism is applicable from 07.08.2012. Hence, for the period 01.07.2012 to 06.08.2012, Service Tax is to be paid by the Director himself for which he has to register himself with Service Tax Dept.

 

So, my query is, for registeration purpose for the director, whether the limit of Rs. 10 Lacs is considered for annual remuneration or for the remuneration between 01.07.2012 to 06.08.2012?

 

Thanks & Regards.

Dear Nirmit,

 

The Notification should not be read in isolation. It has to be read along with basic provisions of the Act.

 

As per the Finance Act, the term service has been defined. As per the definition, Service excludes any service rendered by an employee to his employer in the course of his employment. Hence, every Whole Time Director / Managing Director / Executive Director, who is in the rolls of the company is not liable to service tax, as they are employees of the company.

 

Hence, this notification is applicable only to non-executive directors.

 

Hope your doubt is clarified.

agree
