What if bill is 10000 + ST 1236 = Rs. 11236 raised by Manpower Supply (Individual) to the Company.
and SR will discharge (75%) Rs. 927 as reverse charges by its own.
Whether in this case TDS will deducted on Rs. 10,309/- or Rs. 11,236/-. |

Mr Naveen,
Service tax Under reverse charge is liability on Service recipient. Even if Service provider is charging service tax on his invoice that would not release the liability on service recipient. Service recipient would still have to discharge his liability.
Section 194C/J attracts on ANY SUM PAID or CREDITED to the vendor's/contractor's account.
If Service tax is payable to SP(service provider) then only TDS is to be deducted. But under Reverse Charge Mechanism, service tax liability is on service receiver and hence, service tax is payable to Govt not to SP. Therefore, neither service tax(reverse charge) is paid nor it is credited to Service provider's account. Hence, TDS is not deductible on such service Tax.
Example.
Invoice (XYZ & Associates)
Manpower Services Rs. 1000
Service tax Rs. 123.6
Total Bill Rs. 1123.6
Entry:
Manpower charges..............................Dr. 1000
Service Tax Input..................................Dr. 30.9
Service Tax Input(Reverse charge).....Dr. 92.7
To TDS payable(194C).............. 20.62 (1000+30.9)*2%
To Service tax payable............. 92.7
To XYZ & Associates 1010.28
I hope this might clear the issue.
