sec. 66d is for services covered under negative list.
such services are out of the service tax chargability.
sec 66 d covers services related to agriculture activities such as processing, supply of manpower for agriculture, renting of land for agriculture , inter alia, it includes storage service to.
so warehosing of agriculture product is not taxable by virtu of sec 66 d of the act
