Hi John,

Software Industry is one of the industry where Service Tax and VAT  both are appicable for this organization,

As per your question VAT is applicable for (Software Development) and others are comes under Service Tax.

Wehn the company developed the software and sell it to many companies through CDs then this should be a VAT Invoice and the maintenance, design should comes under Service Tax act.

Thanks
