A sec 25 company is not exempt from the applicability of the provision of the service tax act just because it is engaged in the charitable activities. You have check that whether services provided by the company are subject to service tax or not. If it is so then read provision of that taxable service and then check that whether services provided by your company are taxable or exempted.
