THE RECENT ORDER OF DELHI HIGH COURT HAS STRUCK DOWN THE LEVY OF SERVICE TAX ON RENTING.
GOVT. HAS FILED APPEAL AGAINST THIS DECISION IN SUPREME COURT ON 2ND JUNE 09 WHICH HAS BEEN ADMITTED BUT THERE IS NO STAY.
THEREFORE AS OF NOW THERE IS NO NEED TO PAY SERVICE TAX ON RENT.
DELHI HIGH COURT WAS ASKED TO HEAR THIS CASE BY THE SUPREME COURT OF INDIA ON THE REQUEST OF GOVT. OF INDIA TO TRANSFER ALL THE CASES IN DIFFERENT HIGH COURTS TO DELHI.HENCE THE ORDER OF DELHI HIGH COURT IS APPLICABLE TO ALL OVER INDIA EXCEPT J & K
