both parts are commercial, as the company is payee and its used for its commercial employees. 

service tax is applicable on gross sum addiing both the floors

If the premises is residential in my opinion, it does not matter who is paying the rent. Renting of commercial premises wouldbe liable as accomodation is excluded. However the new entry of a/c accomodation over 1000 declared value may have tobe examined.
