I am engaged in manufacturing business and having central excise registration. I receive the labour through contractors for various works like packing and other processes related to manufacture of excisable goods. The services of such contractors would be covered under which service- manpower supply or works contract?

packing is a part of manufacturing. process amounting to manufacturing is exempt from service tax. So no liability towards Service tax either by service provider or receiver
