Applicability of Service Tax
This query is : Resolved

We are into business of supply, installation and commissioning of Water Pipes for Drinking Water Distribution. I would like to know if we would be eligible to pay service tax on the installation and commissioning. I could not find any specific provision in relation to this in the Act.
Till now we have been paying Service Tax, but after reading the act, I did not find anything which said we are to pay, and nothing specific that we are exempted.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much, we generally do it for Drinking Water Supply Schemes for the government and it is not for commercial or industrial purposes.
I will definately go through it once more.

One more suggestion, before make decision better you can take Opinion from the Service tax consultants, because general exemption can take easily, but this type of exemption better you consult more than one consultant
