I have assessee who registered under service tax under category advertising service where turnover above 10 lacs and charge service tax, paid.
Now he is earning income under category Brokerage and commission which is not exceeding limit of service tax exemption.
Whether the service tax applicable to category brokerage and commission?
or
Should apply for registration for category brokerage and commission or add a service tax category?

If a service provider is providing more than one service he has to take separate registration for each service rendered by him subject to the eligibility of threshold limit. As far as brokerage & commission is concerned if it arises from the services of 'Real Estate Agent/consultant' service tax registration has to be taken.This is only an example. For a correct view the full particulars of the nature of brokerage and commission of your client should be examined.
