if a travel agent opts for Composition scheme, he has to pay service tax on basic fare only. If he is charging his profit margin in Airport Taxes paid, but the invoice to client does not mention the margin separately, whether he is liable to pay service tax on the margin charged from the client?
If it is taxable kindly provide the section where it has been mentioned?

S T Dated 24.04.2006 it is mentioned under the heading International Air Travel that YQ and YR charges collected by the Airline from the passengers are includible in the value of taxable service provided by aircraft operator to passenger embarking in India for international journey.
