Normally the rate service tax is 10.3%. But the advertisement agencies charging 1.8 plus EC 3%, how it is working. Please give any one clarification for this. IS there any abatement portion in this.

Service tax is applicable on any advertisement's bill is only 15% of bill amount. because agency is acting as a sub contractor and he is collecting money along with margin which is not more than 15%. There for ST is applicable on only 15% of bill amount. Regards Pragnesh
