This query is : Resolved 

03 April 2009 Dear All,
we r service providing co. & one of our client is having guest houses all over india. we provides house keeping services as well as catering.In case of catering we used to purchase groceries,vegetables,beverages & made the complete food and the same served to guest.

and whatever the expenses we incurred that we have to reimburse it from the client.

so,want to confirm that service tax is applicable on that purchase of groceries,vegetables & other raw materials?
or vat is applicable?

05 April 2009 Service tax is chargeable on gross amount. What you are providing is complete food and not the groceries / vegetables.

Under outdoor catering services you have abatement of 50% from the taxable amount.

Under housekeeping ( cleaning services) there is no abatement.

06 April 2009 Thanks.
