I wish to know if an imported 'readymade' application software either in 'digital/non-physical' form or 'boxed' form from USA/UK, when sold in India, does 'Service Tax' need to be charged to the buyers ?

As I understand, 'Tally' is also a readymade application software and buyers of Tally are charged only VAT @ 4% and not Service Tax.

Awaiting expert opinions.

Thanks.

Service Tax@4.12%

I just signed up for a duplex house in hyderabad. The actual cost of the house is 50Lacs (PlotCost+CostofConstruction=9,33,000+40,67,000). Now the builder is charging ServTax@4.12% on 40,67,000=1,67,560/- and VAT@4% on 42,34,560(40,67,000+1,67,560)=1,69,382. The ST+VAT component is totalling to 3,36,942/-. Is this calculation correct??

As per my understanding of ServTax according to this link http://in.rediff.com/getahead/2005/aug/03tax.htm.

The Statement:
"With effect from June 16, 2005, exemption has been provided up to 67% of the gross value of services provided by the builder. Hence, service tax would be charged on 33% of the gross value."

33%*40,67,000=13,42,110/-. So ServTax=4.12%*13,42,110=55,294/-.

1.Is the above (55,294)calculation correct?? If not
pls explain in detail.

2.ServTax is mentioned as 12.36% in all matters, then how come its being charged as 4.12%? On what basis is this figure reached?

3.Am I being charged inappropriately by the builder??

4.When I was talking to another builder he told that VAT was charged at 1% and not 4% and that too it needs to be paid at the time of registration, so he asked me to reinquire again with the builder i'm signing up wiht. This put me in a BIG DILEMMA, as to whether i'm being taken for a ride or is everything fair.

5.My builder is insisting that I pay the ST & VAT by the time of 1st installment release of the bank loan.

6.The house is still under construction (70%complete), so am I still liable to pay ST/VAT at this stage itself or can I pay after taking possession of house, alongwith registration?

Sorry if i'm asking too much, as i'm not familiar with all these terminology. Just started reading articles on these and confused, until I came across this site. I hope my clarifications are answered in best interest of me.
