15 October 2009 It's not to be termed as Salary Bill. The holding company is providing some service to the subsidiary company through it's emploees and as a matter of fact almost all services are done by employees.

So billing should be for the service offered and basis of bill ( amount to be charged) may be the salary of the concerned employees.

Service tax will be charged if the service offered is a taxable service under Service Tax Act i.e that depends on the nature of service offered and as most of the services are covered....... :-)
