As per notification 15/2012, service tax on hiring of motor is to be paid by both ie. service provider & service receiver as well. There is some percentage mentioned in the said notification. Also it is applicable where service receiver is a company and service provider is Individual/HUF/Firm. My queries are as follows 1. If my company takes service of hiring of motor car from individual who is not liable to service tax i.e his gross revenue is less than 9/10 lacs pa. then is only service receiver is liable to pay the service tax at the given percentage or he is not liable to pay service tax since service provider is not liable? 2. If my company takes service of hiring of motor car from individual who is registered under service tax and if he charges 12.36% service tax in the bill. Then how much should I pay him because as per notification service tax payable by service provider is limited to some percentage so he can not charge me entire service tax. I hope i am clear with my queries. Please reply.
