Hi Gaurav,

Let us not complicate the service tax law.

Please note the threshold exemption limit is available from the very first ruppe and till it reaches to Rs. 10 lakh and hence out of Rs. 15 lakh, Rs. 10 lakh is exempt [Notification No. 33/2012] and hence on Rs. 5 lakh you can receive benefit of valuation rules i.e. charging ST on 40% of value.

In other words, more simply, service tax law starts to a small service provider from Rs. 10,00,001/- and hence only after this the question of valuation methods arise. How can we apply valuation methods to first Rs. 10,00,000/-  when it is not taxable at all.

I hope your doubt is clear.

Best Wishes.

Nicely explained by Gautam.

Regards,
