Pls tell me the turnover limit to get registered for service tax.
If a person is graphic designer and undertakes graphic designing jobs then at what rate he should charge service tax.
Secondly if the same person undertakes the printing job but he is not a printer but gets the printing job done from outside then should he charge service tax from the client and at what rate.

The turnover limit is Rs.10 lacs per annum. Once the turnover reaches 9 lacs,he should get himself registered under the service tax act.
The service tax rate is 12.36% and can be collected in his service bills.
Regarding printing job, if the job worker is an assesseee then he will collect the service tax and claim/set off the service tax collected. Or in the total bill the person can collect 12.36% for the graphic and printing work.
