Service tax on receipt basic-service tax payable

Others 527 views 7 replies

Invoice Total -Rs.1,00,000

Service Tax - Rs.14,000

Service reciever paid only Rs.75,000.

Invoice was issued before Payment,

Since service reciever was paying service tax on reciept basis,

Can he show service value as = Rs.75,000*100/114=65,790 & Service Tax as =9211 being 14% of Rs.65,790.

No. Service Tax needs to be paid on total value of service provided for which the invoice has been raised but not on the basis of amount received from service receiver.

Service Tax on Receipt up to 50 Lakh Point of Taxation rule : Budget 2012

Dear Jyothis 

your question needs a correction. As it was said that service receiver is paying ST on receipt basis???? only service provider will have the option to pay ST on receipt basis if the aggregate of taxable services provided by him from one or more premises in the last financial year does not exceed fifty lakhs.

My doubt is when a firm is paying serive tax on receipt basis,(Service provider)

Are they liable to pay service tax on entire invoice value or service tax on amount received alone.

Say invoice value -Rs.1 lacs & received only Rs.75,000 even after raising inoive.

Yes, Jyothis you are correct in the above interpretation and if the aggregate value of the taxable service has not exceeded Rs. 50 lakhs in the previous financial year then service tax can be paid on receipt basis based on the cum- tax calculation. Further it needs to be properly disclosed in teh ST-3 returns.

Where it is to be disclosed in return.

We normally,show adjusted turnover.

Say Rs.50,000 is only received for Rs.1 lacs invoice then,

Turnover as Rs.50k*100/114.5=43,668 & ST as balance of Receipt = Rs.6,331.

Dear Jyothis

In the ST-3 return there is seperate column given for it i.e., "Column B1.2 Amount received in advance for services for which bills/invoices/challans or any other documents have not been issued". You can disclose the amount in that column.
