Please refer to parakh bhai's comment. The service tax shall be paid by the entity who gave sponsorship. What the entity has done is wrong. You better refund the service tax amount.

Sudarshan, are you sure about this? If I am not wrong, charitable trusts are exempt from service tax!

Refer Notification no.25/2012 wherein it is mentioned that certain charitable activities (as specified) provided by registered trusts are exempt. However other activities/ services provided by trusts other than the exempted ones are taxable. However, general threshold exemption of Rs.10 lacs is available to trusts also.

even for charity only certain activities(specified therein) are exempt. Other general public utility services are exempt upto 10 lacs only
