We (A public Ltd Co.) give a contract to a person transferring our plant & machinery (Like Hydra Plant, Batching Plant, Factory Shed)from One Site to another.
Party has given service Bill to us without charging any service tax say of Rs. 500000/-.
Party (an individual) is a civil contractor and not taken service tax no.
Now my query is What is our service liability.
Under which head we are liable to pay and is there any abatement or reverse charge is available.

Mantu there is no question of ur Service Tax Liability. Since the Service Provider has shifted ur stuff, then the liability is of the provider to collect ST from u. U R on a safe side.
