Dear Sir/Madam,
Mr.X is an individual (proprietor) under taking centering works for construction of residential building and Educational institutions. He is been engaging 10 to 15 men on daily wages basis to get the works done. He usually paid the wages to the workers on weekly basis. He calculates wages of centering works on the basis of per square feet and the same he will collect from the Building owner & Education institutions in a week or two week time.

He has not filed income tax returns so far but now he wishes to file the return, There are no books of accounts maintained. He is willing to show his income u/s 44AD..


If he is shows turnover more than 10 lakhs for the purpose of section 44AD on the other hand will it be treated as taxable under service tax?

Dear Expert,

Our client has provided service to MES which was taxable from 01.03.2015 which was exempt retrospectively.
We have applied for refund of service tax paid due to insertion of section 159 of Finance Act, 2016
In which basic documents required for applying is
Contract entered into before the 1st day of March, 2015 and on which appropriate stamp duty, where applicable, had been paid before that date.


In which it was specifically mentioned that stamp duty should be paid where applicable ? ?

My question is ? ? ?

Whether there is any clause in Registration Act 1908 along with Stamp duty Act 1958 which require that contract executed between MES department and client is compulsorily to be registered . .

Please give your valuable suggestion

Thanking You

a service provider is providing two services
1.) beauty treatment
2.) cosmetic surgery

should we advice him to bifurcate the nature of service provided by him in the invoice issued by him???

Respected Sir

Please guide me upon issue is notice period recovery comes under service tax payment.

 The definition of service as per Section 65 B (44) of the Finance Act, 1994 specifically excludes “provision of service by an employee to the employer in the course of or in relation to his employment”. Therefore, service tax is not applicable on the provision of service by an employee to the employer in the course of employment. However, if an employer is rendering any services to the employee and recovers money from the employee then service tax is payable on such recoveries by the employer.

But

 Recovery of notice pay amount from the employee when resigning from employment - The activities of agreeing to the obligation to refrain from an act, or to tolerate an act or a situation, or to do an act are declared as services effective 1st July 2012. This activity will get covered under obligation to do an act. Therefore, the employer is liable to pay service tax on the recovery of notice pay amount from the employee.

Please guide me further on this matter.

Warm regards
Naveen Shori
