we are paying commission to foregin agent since 2003-2004.

so i want to know when we are liable to pay service tax on such commission since 2003-2004 or 18-04-2006?

because explanation has been inserted and effective from such date.

plz tell me was was the provision before 18-04-2006 and after it.

pl advise as to whether lease payment or receipts are covered under service tax. if yes then what about lease from abroad and under what section.

suppose we availed service of Rs 100 + S.t 12.36 total amount of bill is 112.36

we processed the bill, but paid to party only 56.18 (50%) ,50% is retention money to be paid after one year .

can we claim cenvat credit for whole amount 12.36 ??

can any body send me recent changes in service tax act & also changes related to input credit.

Dear all,
Pl.clarify the following points
1. IF bill was raised f.y. 06-07 alowng with service tax@12.24% when the payment is realised in the year 08-09, at what rate we are liable to pay S.T. i.e. @12.24% or 12.36%?

2.we are paying Service Tax on GTA on 25% of bill value, can we take this payment as input credit? if so can we take the credit in the same month.

thanking you,

Can a service tax provider take credit of Additional duty of custom u/s 3(5) under Custom Tariff Act for paying service tax collected

We are acting as commission agent for a foreign principal who does not have any office in India. We procure the order from India for the foreign principal. The confirmed order is forwarded to the foreign principal to enable it to ship the material to India. Billing is done by the foreign principal in favour of the Indian customer. For this transaction, we get commission in convertible foreign currency from the foreign principal. We have considered the above transaction under export of services. We are not paying any service tax on commission received. Are we correct?

How Come This Export Of Service??
