Service tax on lawn.

clause no 28 of the list of the exempted services as mentioned in Notification no 25/2012 . As per this clause , only those unincorporated body or Non profit entity registered under any law for the time being in force who provides services to its own members by way of reimbursement of charges or share of contribution to its member not exceeding amount of Rs 5000/- per member per month . Further circular no 175/01/2014 dated 10/01/2014 clarifies

so how this relates to my situation....

I am providing services(i.e. giving lawn for marraige to all general public)

 

Services by a person by way of-

• renting of precincts of a religious place meant for general public; or
• conduct of  any religious ceremony;

are exempted under Not. 25/2012.

Since, you are giving the place for marriage (religious ceremony), it is exempt.

 

but the place which i am giving is open ground(so how it comes under religious place??)
