If in case, Telephone Bill of Company paid by one Agent around Rs.3,000/-*** & against that transaction he raised bill with addition his fees as Rs.1,000/-***.
At the time of bill raising:
a) Can he charge Service Tax on Rs.4,000/-?; OR
b) Can he charge Service tax on Rs.1,000/-.
Service provider can include reimbursement of expenses and he can charge service tax including reimbursement expenses.
The service provider will raise the bill only for the services rendered by him
ie: The bill will be Rs1000/- + Service Tax

Telephone bill is of company and agent has just paid it, so he can reimuburse the same only, he can not issue invoice against / for this bill.
regarding his charges he can issue invoice for 1000/- for whatsoever services he has tendered and would charge servicetax, if the service is under servicetax net.
Service tax has to be charged on the gross amount billed. Hence service tax is chargable on Rs.4000. However when the person is acting as pure agent then service tax need not be charged on Rs.3000
Thanks to all.........
