If the service receipient is any of the following:
any company formed or registered under the Companies Act, 1956 (1 of 1956) or a business entity registered as body corporate located in the taxable territory;
and the service provider is any one of the following:
Individual (prop ) /Partnership firm (registered or unregistered) /HUF
then service receipient should only pay to service provider service tax on 25% of the value of service provided. If service provider has charged service tax on 100% of the service provided then service receipient should deduct the excess service tax charged by the service provider and pay service tax on 75% value directly to Government.
