20 September 2012 Taking the businesses as proprietory....... Unfortunately Service Tax is taking a very narrow VIEW in such a cases. Nice you opened this query... Let me add... even within a single business having 2 lines of activities .. AUDIT fee paid for the entire business... they are not allowing the input credit... Even on proportionate basis) Solicit your views.
