Dear Sir, Suppose an assessee who deals in mobile flexi recharges and his annual turnover is above 10 lacs. If he pays Rs. 94/- to his principal company then that principal company will credit recharge value of Rs. 100/- in his mobile and further that dealer will sell it to a retailer for Rs. 96/-, thus his profit is 2%.
Now please advise me whether the said dealer is liable to obtain servise tax registration.
