Hello everyone,

My Client is providing Shares consultancy for which he is getting handsome income. Will this service comes under any of the taxable services mentioned under Service Tax Law.

Please reply ASAP

Dear Sir,

If a customer agrees to pay lumpsump Transport Charges with Ser.Tax in addition to the price for delivey of goods will it be proper.

The supplier proposes to tell customer that in addition to the price of Goods he shall arrange transport also. This transport he will procure from outside and will earn some profit in it also.

Can said service be classified as Business Auxiliary Service since the supplier is a manufacturing company and not a GTA who issus Consignement Notes ?

Please clarify if the supplier collects and pays Service tax on above, will it be ok to be on safer side as he shall be earning some profit.

There is 60% abatement of service tax in transport industry. Basing on this, they are charging only 4.944% Service Tax. What is this abatement?
What is the purpose of this abatement? why it is given?
Can't we change to normal slab?
If we change to normal slab, can we claim input credit of service tax?

Its urgent.

can a 100% EOU company claim cenvat credit on various services like Auditing?. that is if auditor's bill is soppose 100000 + service tax 12224 can company book 12224 as cenvat credit

Mr. A has applied for Service TAx No. and paid the service tax during the FY 07-08. Now as per the new amendment he is not liable to pay service tax as his turnover is below rs.10 lacs for FY 2007-2008.

What will be his status in FY 08-09? whether he has to apply for cancellation of number?

In case of civil repairs & maintenance if the contractor provides only the labour are we suppose to pay service tax on the invoice amount charge to us on labour rate? whether the concept of 67% abatement on service tax is applicable here or not?

I would like to know : what is the rate of ST payable now, (present rate is 12%), in case, value of service is received now... which pertains to older period...when ST rate was lower...8 % or 10 %.

ST officer says if you are paying ST now for new or old periods.... you have to pay rate of tax presently applicable.

But I think it is not justified : Supposing I receive commission now of 5 years back.... when ST was not applicable... then obviously I will not pay ST on that. Similarly, if I had charged 8 % or 10 % ST to a company 2-3 years back, and they pay the amount to me now with the lower amount of ST, then how can I pay higher new rate of ST to Govt ??

Please also give govt. circulars / notices if any regarding the above.

Please clarify as to when does the service tax liability on advance received from the clients rise? in case, the advance was received in F/y 2006-07 and the bill is raised in the end of F/y 2007-08.i.e, Mar-08. When do we need to pay service tax.

In the similar situation, if the advance is only partially adjusted against the billl raised in Mar-08. What is the service tax liability.

Request you to enlighten me with circular/notifications from the department

Thanks and regards

K.Ganesh
