23 March 2010 One of our client is a registered trust and it is running a hospital.

My question is whether they will be liable to pay service tax if value of taxable service exceeds Rs. 1000000/- eventhough it is trust?

24 March 2010 Thank you sir.
I want to ask another question.

Before 2006 there is exemption from service tax to trusts?
