Services by an entity registered under section 12AA of income tax act by way of charitable activity is exempt from servcie tax under mega notification no. 25/2012 section 12A is not covered under exemption of service tax.

Sir in the present case Trust is receiving service. As on plain readingof N no. 25/2012 it says "services by.....". However here Trust is receiving service and thus ques arises that whether Trusts are liable in reverse charge mechanism.

If you are a receiver of security services, you are liable to service tax to the extend of 75% of the tax payable under the reverse mechanism notwithstanding that you are a charitable entity.

I think N. No. 30/2012 has its reply. This is taxable only in case of business entities. Many thanks to the responders.
