One of my client is providing Trucks / lorry to a builder. on contract basis. The builder use that trucks to transport there raw material (mixture) from their plant to different locations/construction sited. Please clarify under which head of services it is covered and what rate of service tax applicable as the builder arguing that he is not taking any service and hiring the trucks on contract basis which is not attract service tax. Please mention relevant notification number, if any.
