dear all,

1) recently i came across one case where a shipping company reimburses expenses to clearing & forwarding agent in respect of clearing of goods from port trust

2) to get the reimbursement c & f agent raises a debit note on his own letter head plus he issues a seperate invoice for his service charges

3) alongwith reimbursement bill he also attaches port trust's documents on which port trust has charged service tax but the same has not been shown seperately in the debit note
