12 May 2013 Dear Saurabh,
When the service provider as well as Service receiver is in India , the service provided anywhere in the world , it will be taxable in India as per Rule 8 of Place of Provision Rules 2012.
So service provided by security persons to you are taxable in India.
Further No reverse charge is applicable when Service receiver as well as Service provider is Body Corporate.

13 May 2013 I want to add that partial reverse charge is applicable in case of security services.


13 May 2013 Thanks Arvind Ji.

I do agree with your opinion.But in this caser partial reverse charge will be applicable. As the Security Persons are receiving the amount from Body Corporate i.e. from my opinion.

Please also enlight on the matter that whether there is any scope to get the refund from the department. As my company has paid the tax on security persons billing under reverse charge mechanism.

13 May 2013 In that case, I suggest you to not pay service tax again under reverse charge. Same transaction cannot be taxed twice.
