on case of contract service tax, there are two options in your hand

1) pay ST @ full rate and avail input credit on sub contractor bills

2) pay ST @ 4.12% and forget the input credit.

 

choice is in your hands.

I think he wants to know whether if he collects Rs.10 as service tax and has a credit  of Rs. 5 and pays the balance of Rs.5 then whether it is correct or not.

As per me i think it is correct.

If he does not want the hardships then has to pay the service tax at 4.12% on ther service and forget about the input.

mere duty collection 10/5 does not represent that the tax is paid at full rate or at composition rate,
