My Query is related to General Restaurant Food Bill. In case Service charges have been separately charged in the bill, can Service Tax be levied on the abovementioned service charges??
And is VAT applicable on whole amount (including service charges which have been separately mentioned as such)??
The third doubt is - In what all cases can Service Tax be levied in a Restaurant Food Bill??

Please go through the definition of 'sale price' and aos go through the clause 36A of rtcle 366 of the Constitutuion of India. You may find that VAT is applicable also on service charges which is being charged for serving foods.
