Dear sir

We were awarded a contract and in this connection we have sub-contracted certain works to NRI company. On the payments made to the NRI (sub-contracted) we have paid service tax on reverse charge mechanism. The person who had awarded the work had reimbursed the payment of service tax made by us on the NRI payment. Our claim is as per the contractual provisions. Whether there is any mistake in our claim. Can law prohibits such reimbursement claim because it is service tax paid on the input service.

if a foreign individualm has a personal property in india and he took a taxable service from another foreign service provider in india than is there any service tax liability?? if then, who will pay it as both are not resident of india...

what if one of them is an nri but still don't have place of business or residence in india???

sir

We are a 100% EOU manufacturing auto components and exporting to USA. We have a payment terms of DA 60 days with our customer and have shipment terms of CIF Detroit. In June 2006, some of our components were found to be rusty and our customers in USA got the consignment sorted at their plant in USA by a third party sorting agency and deducted the sorting cost amount from payment due to us. Since the rust problem persisted, our customers asked us to directly contract the sorting agency for sorting at our customer's plant in USA, all our consignments after arriving in the plant but before accepting the consignment. The sorting agency directly billed us and we paid them a total of almost 37 lacs in 2006-2007 and 2007-2008 periods. The sorting agency does not have any office in india and all the sorting was done in the USA. Are we liable to pay service tax on the sorting service that was provided in the USA on goods that were in USA at the time of sorting just because we have paid for that service? Looking forward to the experts' opinions at the earliest.

Hi friends,

please help me in solving out a query,
Our main office is in Noida manufacturing undergarments.
Our relative have an office in Delhi which is doing Job work for us.
Is he liable to charge service tax from us u/s 65 of Service Tax act.
However all the expenses for that premises are paid from us. and it is also possible to make that firm as a branch of our company, because service tax wont be applicable in that case. Am i Correct?

Please clarify me if i am wrong and give me best suitable option. i will provide you more details if you required.

Thanks & Regards
