Dear Experts, XYZ limited is manufacturing concern of branded product however we are engaged in partnership firm authorized by xyz limited to repair & maintenance of it's branded product, assume mr. X (individual) has purchased any product from xyz limited with one warranty and after one year mr. X has complaint to us (partnership firm) to repair his out of warranty product after repair of product we will issue the invoice to mr. X from the name of our partnership firm and will receive payment from mr. X, tough the authorization by xyz limited does not seems to be for out of warranty product because in course of out of warranty product company is not responsible for anything else query.1) as per above following case does our firm eligible for 10 lacs, exemption or not....

Dear Highly debatable issue. It is recommended to pay service tax on out of warranty products also. As if you do not pay st the litigation may arise afterwards.

sir many thanx for your reply... we were authorized by company to repair it's warranty product in this case we will issue the invoice to company instead of customer and company will made the payment to us but in case of out of warrantny we will issue the invoice to customer instead of company and customer will made the payment to us for repairance of out of warranty product.
plzz clarify on repairance of out of warranty product weather we are eligible to avail 10 lacs exemption or not and it is also to be noted that company is not linked with out of warranty product as far as authorization is also concern....

Dear Do not claim exemption benefit of Rs. 10lakhs as it is a unsettled issue. Practically there are many court/ tribunal ruling but these are not on single line i.e some decisions say to avail exemption and some restrict to claim exemption. If you claim exemption then it is most expected that you may face litigation or deptt scn in near future. So do not avail exemption. And also near my place there is a lenovo authorised service center they do charge st even on the out of warranty products without taking exemption benefit.

Dear In case you have to take different service tax number. Also the premises should be different (like first floor or second floor) and person should be different . as one person can provide as many service he want to give on single st number.
