Hi Expects,

When i check with bank, they said as per Govt notification its chargable. Could you please clarify on this? if this chargeable will home loan EMI interest also comes under service tax catogory?

There is no ST on interest but it is there on the other services including delayed payment charges. The Card companies loot the public by charges based on past outstanding and at very high rates. They cannot justify that it is interest as the rate would be 40+% at times!!! So they choose to pay ST on the whole amount. This is my impression.
