09 August 2012 In case of reverse charge, can service receiver avail benefit of Rs.10 lacs per service provider or has to pay ST without considering basic exemption limit?

For academic interest i am asking. Suppose my services are in the negative list and hence i donot need to apply for ST registration. But i am a service receiver of advocate fees, manpower supply for my output services, and i pay freight under GTA service. In such a scenario, according to your clarification he is also covered for applying registration. Is it so?

For existing RC holder, as a service receiver he has to pay service tax for all the reverse charge services and he cannot claim threshold limit of 10 lacs. For service providers the basic exemption is available.

Reverse Charge Mechanism in service tax is not a new concept. Under this scheme, service tax is payable by service recipient instead of service provider . Under this charge service receiver have to register himself under service tax . Further service receiver can not claim general exemption limit of 10 Lakh rupees. So he has to pay even on few rupees of service received.
