YES.

Examples of taxable services include services provided during warranty period, subsequent services such as routine check of performance of engine and vehicle, engine tuning, engine oil check, gear oil check, wheel alignment, wheel balancing, clutch and brake adjustment, wheel rotation, cleaning/washing and any repairs undertaken. However, cost of parts and accessories supplied during course of repair and servicing of vehicle will not be includible in the taxable value. Such cost should be shown separately in the bill/invoice.
