Service tax payable on rent above 10lakh

Hi All,

I am new to this forum.  I  could not find any similar tread so started a new tread.

I am running resort and i am paying a rent of 157500Rs/monthly since dec 2010.

1. So from Dec 2010 to Mar 2011 i have paid 630000Rs. I hope i dont have to pay any service tax for 2010 as i have not crossed 10lakh rent.  Please advice.

2. For the current year of now i have not paid any service tax till now. Assuming i will pay after 6th month of this years rent. ie after i pay a total of rent > 1000000 to my landlord. Please correct me if i am wrong. Please le tme know what is the amount that i have to pay.

3. Leaglly who is supposed to pay this service tax. The tenant or the landlord??? (there is nothing mentioned in the agreemant copy)

in case of taxable services (rent), the landlord is liable to collect and pay service tax above 10L in 1st year and in subsequent years.
