For Works Contracts (New Works), the abatement is 60% and if the recipient is paying 50% (50% of 40%) tax at their end, you have to charge balance 20% in your invoice that means Rs.100/- invoice value & WCT Service Tax @ 20% i.e. 2.472% totalling to 102.472 @ 12.36% (This rate is 14%) from 01.06.2015 onwards. For MRS, you have to bill for 35% (50% of 70%) tax not 30%.
