Is it necessary to collect service tax on rental income which exceeds 8 lakhs if we consider the rent for the month of April and May 2007. But the notification come into force only from 1st june 2007.

The rent relating to June 2007onwards alone needs to be taken into consideration for computation SSI excemption.

A big NO.

 

Is there any service tax is levied on parking spaces under 'Renting of Immovable Property'? Please give full details about this.

'Rent of parking space' is a commertial activity.  If the same is more than the thershold limit then the same will attract service tax.

 Letting out of immovable property is a taxable service. Service tax is payable by the recipient of rent. Since the property is in the joint name, you need to make separate agreements, so that service tax basic exemption limit can be claimed. When there is one single agreement, you will come under service tax ambit.
