"Laying and Compaction" means properly distributed the material within the specified loaction and pressing it for leveling the area with the help of trucks.

The material which is to be layed and compacted is owned by "EFG & Co".

I hope that given facts fit in to the recent circular no.147/2011 dated 21-10-2011 issued by CBEC. As such there is no service tax liability to the sub-conatrctors as well. Pl. go through the circular to see factual similarity.
