From February 2009, Service Tax Rate had changed to 10.3%. Sir, I want to know, on payment of service tax, split up goes like Service Tax 10%, Education Cess 2%, Secondary Education Cess 1%. Or else, service tax 10% and Education cess 3%. When i submited my half year return of service tax, problem arises that rate should be splitted to education cess and secondary education cess. Hence, i had to pay the Secondary edu. cess in excess. Pls let me know.
