Services by Authorized Service Stations
This query is : Resolved
18 October 2007
My Client is an authorised dealer for a renowned brand of two wheelers.Recently a survey was conducted at his premises and he was queried as to why has he not got himself registered with the service tax authorities. The reply was that we were still under the basic exemption limit.The department took the view that since the services being provided are under a brand name the services should be taxable from the very first receipt.
My view from the study i have done on this subject so far is that, services provided under brand name are those where the service provider is directly the company whose dealer is managing it. However in this case my client is providing service on his own behalf, i.e. under his name and not in the name of the company.Please Advice.

Your client, an authorised service agent is laible to service tax for the services provided by him for two wheelers of a company. Presumably,he is providing the services in his own right only using the brand name of the company for which he is authorised.
Therfore if service receipts exceed the exemption limit of Rs.8 lacs p.a. then only service tax is payable.
