I know that Vat will be chargeable even if Srevice Tax is applicable in some transactions(Ex. in case of works contract). My doubt is that the act says that if the assessee takes INPUT CREDIT of VAT, he has to pay VAT separately. I dont understand this concept. Does this mean that if VAT is not charged separately, Service Tax is chargeable for cost of materials provided along with the cost for service ?
Hi Sir / Madam
I have a confusion in GTA that If we are paying some amount to Transport co. & transporter is not levied a service Tax in bill. then it is our liability to pay service tax.
But on that time Our sale against service tax is below Limit even that condition I have to pay the tax or not.
And if yes then 25% or 75% of the taxable amount?
And if we paid the service tax on transporter's behalf then can we deduct a amount of service tax from his payment?
We are a C.H.A. (Custom House Agent). For export consignments of our client, we are receiving 2% brokerage on shipping freight amt. from shipping line.
Is this brokerage taxable ?? If yes, under which category ?? Pls note 1) Not all shipping co giving this brokerage 2) Out of freight on which amt, brokerage @ 2% will be paid is not decided, 3) When we will receive brokerage thats also not decided, it may be after 2-3 months, 6 months. 4) Shipping co are foreign co and brokerage charged by us and granted by co. is in US$ but recd in INR by converting at respective Ex Rate
I found on Marwah & Associates website servicetax.com that this amt is not taxable (the amt recd by CHA from shipping line for canvassing of Import/Export Cargo would not be chargeble to service tax as these activitiy do not fall within an ambit of taxable services provided by C.H.A.
but department says that this is taxable.
SO, PLEASE HELP.
