One of client has taken on franchisee of education and he has deposited security to HO and client has paid the security fees alongwith Service tax to HO and now client has charged ST from its students alongwith fees deposited. My query is whether client could take benefit of ST paid to Franchisor and pay only balance Service tax of its output service. Pl guide..........thanks

it appears that security fees is paid for providing output service and accordingly it shall be considered as input services and CENVAT credit shall be taken. In your case you have to deposit balance service tax.
