The manpower and detergents and chemicals are supplied by us. All cloths are wet washed with water .machines /water is supplied by govt hospital. we charge them per no. RS 14.Does service tax liability arises? If it arises who should pay service tax?And on which amount?

16 January 2016 There is an exemption available in mega notification which states that service to government in relation to public health, sanitation etc is exempt from tax. But be prepared, the officer will come for dispute. You have to fight hard.
