21 July 2012 1. Old maintenance and repair services are now brought under works contract where 70% of the total bill value is taxable for service tax. Erection commissioning and installation also, if both material and labour is involved, you have to choose only works contract. The following are new definition and abatement permitted for works contract services both for civil and goods.
Where works contract is for… Value of the service portion shall be…
(i) execution of original works forty per cent of the total amount charged for the works contract
ii)
In case of works contract entered into for maintenance or repair or reconditioning or restoration or servicing of any goods (Thus, activities relating to immovable property are not covered)
70% of the total amount charged for the works contract
iii)
Other works contract not covered by (i), or (ii), above including maintenance, repair, completion and finishing services such as glazing, plastering, floor and wall tiling, installation of electrical fittings of an immovable property
60% of the total amount charged for the works contract
2) There is no separate heading for repairs and installation, as replied in answer no.1
3) Under reverse charge mechanism service tax is payable by you, being service receiver, and pay for 25% after deducting 75% abatement. Pay this tax in a separate challan and in the ST 3 return you have to show the full value in the total turnover and show 25% in the taxable turnover.
4) yes, 12.36% on 70% of the bill value
5) Please see the point of taxation rule for payment of service tax for belated settlement. In my opinion, pay the service tax after settlement.
