Kindly tell me whether a co-operative housing society making payment to Manpower supply agency/security services agency is required to pay service tax as a service recipient (100% ) on complete reverse charge basis.

However as per my knowledge 'co-operative society' is not included in the definition of body corporate as per definition in companies act. and hence no reverse charge should be applicable.

You are right as per companies act. But see my reply that I have clearly stated for the purpose of service tax it is included under body corporate.

Can you give me a notification/article which states so, bcoz in all the articles I found out it is written that societies are not liable . Kindly see 1) http://skpatodia.in/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/FAQs-on-Reverse-Charge-Provision.pdf 2)http://taxguru.in/service-tax/reverse-charge-partial-reverse-charge-mechanism-service-tax.html
