The service provided by your client is liable to service tax. 40% of the gross amount received from customers is the value of service. Tax is 12.36% of this amount. Alternatively, if land value is included in the gross amount , then you can opt abatement. Under this method 25% gross amount inclusive of land value is the value of service.
