Service tax is a statutory liability and cannot be shifted by mutual agreement. Service provider should charge only his part of service tax. Service recipient is to pay service tax of his part by GAR-7 challan. Service recipient is liable for only his part and not entire amount, even if service provider does not charge his portion of service tax.
