Does a company (manufacturer) require to pay service tax, if it pays,for the transport sevices, some amount without invoice to (i) an unregistered person or (ii) an exempted small service provider ? Thanks.

Can i know my service tax code no.online or it can be obtained only from local office.

IS Garden maintainece contract chargeble to service tax ?

IF yes
under which service ?

IF contract received from the govt.?

We are a service provider company(energy sector) and availing service tax credit. We are providing service for a goverment organisation and we are using our company van and raising seprate bill for the van. My question is that we should charge service tax @4.95% or 12.36% for the van.

Our tenent, State Bank of Indore,is refusing to PAY the service tax on monthly rent.The tax was imposed by the government on 01.06.2007.The bank actually paid the service tax for three months i.e. Sept07 to Nov'07 alongwith the rent for each month after deducting T.D.S. on total amount.
Now they say that it was paid by mistake.Then they have taken back the service tax amount for three months from the rent of Dec.2007. Is it legal to do that? Can they withdraw money from our current account without our permission ??
Our lease was signed prior to imposition of Service tax.
What is the recourse that we have. How can we get this amount of 12.36% of rent from them ? Can we get the buiding vacated if they do not pay the service tax ??
Thanks,

Thaks in advance/

My Tenent ( a public limited Bank ) is refusing to PAY the service tax on rent of 210000 per month The tax was imposed by the government on 01.06.2007. Our lease was signed much before that i.e. on 21.04.06 . As the service tax did not exist at that time , there is no mention of the same in the lease deed.

What is the recourse that we have as landlords? Our rent amount never included any form of taxes except municipal taxes and property tax. How can we get this amount of 12.36% of rent from them ? Can we get the buiding vacated if they do not pay ??
Thanks,
