Service tax on e-commerce marketplace

Hi, I'm planning to start an E-Commerce marketplace where I'll bring vendors/Manufacturers to online platform. I'll not be holding any inventory and Vendors will be directly shipping the items to customers. End customer will be paying on my website and I'll be paying to Vendors after deducting my commission. Do I need to pay any service tax? Thanks, Rohit

law of India. Otherwise you may be in trouble.

 

Here are the answers to your questions:

Do not take the legal aspects lightly as many companies are prosecuted in India these days.


Hope this serves your purpose.
