I am CA final student and desires to set up own practice after clearing ca course in the field of service tax but i don't have any idea about this field and had never worked in service tax. Rather i have been working in income tax {not more than filing returns, etc.} as an article trainee as my employer has only this work for himself also.
Still i wish to go in field of service tax as we all know it is damn vast field and also most futuristic.
And also i don't think there are much people practicing in service tax wholly in Jaipur and if they are, they will not be ready to impart training.
My query is their any materials available in the market through which i can learn and then slowly gaining experience setup my practice.

It is agood area of practice. You may read the 2 books in the files section - central excise made easy + service tax concepts. Both are necessary to practice in ST.
ST would in a few years be replaced by GST wherein you can practice across India in the whole of IDT.
There are a number of books by Centax Publications or Bharat Law House on various aspects of Indirect taxes. Taxmann has a good book on service tax.
