The work order was for new construction of a new market building in the year 2013 . Subsequently the work was completed & i had received bills from 2013 to 2017.Now service tax officers are specially focusing that construction of Market building is not exempted from service tax in terms of notification no.25/2012.
Madam,
Only Civil construction work has been done by be. I am a Class -1 civil contractor. They have issued the letter demanding penalty & fine stating that as the building is a market "a civil structure or any other original works meant predominantly for use other than for commerce, industry, or any other business or profession; (b) a structure meant predominantly for use as (i) an educational, (ii) a clinical, or(iii) an art:" i am not exempted vide notification no.25/2012 dated 20.06.2012.
If you are confident enough madam ,should i oppose.
