23 November 2010 To my doubt now I would like to add the following :

1.The product[manufactured by the co in question] is a branded one.

2.The company manufacturing and servicing its own products [only] has service income less than Rs.10 lakhs.

Would it make any difference in the resolution already given ?

Please clarify :

1.Whether service tax registration is required for the company ?

2.Is the branded solar water heater manufactured by the company exempted from service tax ?
