I am a practicing CA; If my clients gives cheque to me including his tax and my fees, shall i collect ST on the tax also claiming it as reimbursement?
Another example, i am paying the taxes first from my account and later he is giving consolidated cheque to me. In this case, shall i collect ST on taxes also?

We have made payment to GTA for which we will be liable to service tax as reverse charge basis.

We will be utilizing the current credit balance for payment and avail credit for the same.

What accounting entries have to be passed in the books for this?

Most of the Landlords receive interest free security deposit from tenants. whether notional interest can be taxed on that interest free security deposit. Please refer relevant case law.

HI,

we are wedding planners based in Udaipur Rajasthan and dealing purely in inbound business i.e forex only. we started business in 2004 and by mistake registered ourselves under event management considering our profession of wedding planning. for year 2004-05 we paid service tax whereas we were not supposed to as forex income was not taxable in that time. later we came to know this and we stopped collecting and paying tax. IN 2008 we were asked and surveyed and were given notice to pay service tax since 15 mar 2005. On researching for our defence we learned that wedding and wedding planning was not enrolled under service tax preview till 1st June 2007.

We are preparing our case but need to know how strong are our case from escaping our tax liabilities till 1st june 2007 as the services were not taxable.

thanks
