Dear Sir , As per the new definiation of service, every activity carried out by one person to another person for consideration is called a service in view of the new definiation of service, my opinion on applicablity service tax on stiching service will be applicable if the turnover of stiching services croses Rs.10 lakhs.
Yes I agree with Vishnu if your taxable turnover exceeds the basic limit of Rs 10 lac, you need to pay service tax on the amount of service charges received from the said activity.
