20 December 2007 My client is running a franchisee of computer training institution

By notification No:24/2004 CG exempts the computer training institution from collecting ST

But by notification 19/2005 the notification read as follows

"In the said notification,-
(i) in the opening paragraph, the following proviso shall be inserted at the end, namely:-

“Provided that nothing contained in this notification shall apply to the taxable services provided in relation to commercial training or coaching by a computer training institute.”;

My client is a ST Assessee from the issuance of notification of 19/2005

My query is in the notification 19/2005 use the word "inserted "
and whether the client is liable for collecting the ST from the right beginning ie from the year 2004.

Expecting your valuable reply.pls mention any case laws if any
