In case of import of services where the responsibility of payment of service tax to the revenue department is of the service receiver whether TDS be deducted on amount after adding service tax amount to the bill amount or the amount billed ? In this case service provider has not included the service tax amount in the bill and CBDT circular talks about "Gross amount of bill".

What is the Accounting code No. of Secondary & Higher Education Cess.

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I am facing a query for which i have not been able to get a clear answer.
My Query is that in case of contractors engaged in construction of residential/ commercial complex, who are providing only labour i.e where they have entered into a contractor with the builder for construction and the material is supplied by the builder,(for civil construction, flooring, electrical and finishing services) whether such contractors can get their registration changed form the head Construction of residential/commercial complex and get themselves registered under works contract to take the benefit of concessional rate of service tax. Also would it be advisable for them to do so?

I would be waiting for your response.
Thank you,
Yours truly,
Ruchi Jain.

Letting of Commercial Property is taxable w.e.f. 01/06/2007.There exists a provision that if the value of aggregate taxable services provided in the previous year does not exceed Rs 800000, service provider would enjoy exemption in the current year upto Rs 800000 of receipts. There is a Company in whose case,rent charged during the year 2005-2006 exceeds Rs 800000.
Will the Co still enjoy exemption in the current year 06-07 since the services were not at all taxable during 05-06 (Services became taxable w.e.f.01/06/2007)

Is there any penalty on Non-filing of service tax return.kindly advice me.

Dear friends,

For the calculating TDS on the services,
Whether TDS should be calculated on the invoice amount i.e. (fees + service tax) or only fees amount i.e. not on service tax amount?
IF we are calculating on the invoice then there is tax on service tax it is correct ?

Thanking you
